I lay awake alone

Just let yourself in 'cause my door is always open for you

Keep me warm while the night takes over the sky

And patiently wait for the sun to rise

'Cause I'm so afraid to sleep

I'm so afraid to sleep alone

Why haven't you come? Why aren't you here?

I need you so much it hurts to breathe

I lay awake alone

Blindly calling out for comfort to come help me get along alone

'Cause I'm so afraid to sleep

Without you laying next to me

And each time I turn I shed a tear

Wish my bed would hug me just the way you hug me dear

It's no use trying to replace

Your sweet caressing essence or your tender embrace

And each time I turn I curse my bed

I worry that I'll never ever see the sun again

Night's too long, you're too far way

Now I'll just have to lay awake alone

Damn sun why won't you rise?

'Cause I'm so afraid to sleep

Without you protecting me

And I feel so out of place

Surrendering to sleep next to somebody else
