Yes
I still wake up
in the middle of the night
reaching for a body
that just isn’t there

Just as I did now
and just as I will tomorrow
as well as every night that follows
in which I’m left here alone
without you

Oh my love, our chats seem to be getting much shorter.
Though I hoped they wouldn't,
I thought they might.
Oh my love, the days feel much longer and I'm so tired.
Though I hoped they wouldn't,
I thought they might.
Oh my love, this sadness I feel is getting much deeper.
Though I hoped it wouldn't,
I thought it might.
Oh my love, I knew you'd forget to call and I really needed to chat.
Though I hoped you wouldn't,
I thought you might.
Oh my love, I'm so so sorry.
Though you hoped I wouldn't,
you always knew I would.
