Oh, my lover she sleeps tonight Her head on my chest, getting in her rest While I lie so awake, seeming restless I can not escape Oh, my lover sleeps peacefully Lying next to me, her skin glistening In the moonlight that seeps through the curtain Into my room Oh, my lover is loved back tremendously She is all I see How I can not be For months, or for moments or days away From my lover, I can not be led astray For months, even minutes or half a day From my lover, her loving does not decay For years, I have longed for a love like hers Oh, my lover, she sleeps tonight With her back to me, she does not seem pleased Oh, I wonder how I let you down My darling Oh, my lover won't speak to me She seems so angry, but I'm not sure why Oh, what I would give to look into Your mind But my lover is loved back tremendously When she's mad at me I can hardly breathe Cause I know I'm not good at recovering But I'm trying It's been a month and a week and a couple days From my lover, she said that she needed space For years, I had longed for a love like hers Oh, my lover, she sleeps tonight In another bed, with another man How he cares for her not like I could He does not treat her how he really should But I guess we have something in common I know I mistreated her often He doesn't love her like he should But neither did I
