Forgive me if the fatigue means
my eyes cross
and I lose the thread of your beauty,
it’s in your words, see?
Always has been,
a bit like me
And now my head nods,
we’ll say in affirmation
as you’re a patient person,
though my snort-start awake
will give me away
I’m desperate to stay awake with you,
but these days, y’know?
These days.

Forgive me if the fatigue means
my eyes cross
and I lose the thread of your beauty,
it’s in your words, see?
Always has been,

And now my head nods,
we’ll say in affirmation
as you’re a patient person,
though my snort-start awake
will give me away
I’m desperate to stay awake with you,
but these days, y’know?
These days.
