I followed you home yesterday
Right into your back door.
I went into your living room
Sat down on the floor.

I watched you do the dishes.
I stayed longer than I should.
You didn't invite me here
But if I had asked
I like to think you would.

I lounged on your couch
as you watched tv
I thought you'd notice
but you never saw me.

I pet your cat and laid on your bed
Put my head on your pillow
And listened to everything you said.

You never once looked at my face
I'm here everyday with you
And I never leave a trace.

I'm the sadness
you can't control.
I'm your companion
when life takes its toll.

Next time I come by
invite me in.
I'm coming in anyways
so don't fight it
You'll never win!
