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
