It seems without you here my bed is twice the size acres of extra blankets now you're not by my side
Suddenly I've extra pillows now you need not rest your head despite never using yours and sharing mine instead
And nights seem somehow longer yet i get no rest from sleep Though not totally without you as into my dreams you creep
I wish my nights were not like this and we shared a bed once more waking in each others arms all but one pillow on the floor
