No Rest

In my heart is where I ache

My body so tired but I'm wide awake

Down my face streams a tear

Because, to me, you won't come near

I felt for you, you felt the same

I knew more about you than your name

I felt the attraction and you did too

Your attraction to me and me to you

I thought I could handle just being there

While the fate of us hung in the air

While we talked about Billy, Jimmy, James

And D'arcy as known just by her first name

While talking of personal encounters we've had

And talking of failures that made us feel bad

While talking about why you didn't want to meet

The battles declared I've met with defeat

But every time I sing the same song

That with each other we should belong

But you try to convince me that this is wrong

That my song is pretty but we just can't belong

And here I am with a broken heart

It is your fears that keep us apart

We have no idea how good this could be

If I was with you and you were with me

My heart, it hungers but you won't feed

It bleeds and it leaves stains on my sleeve

 

In my heart, I still ache

My body so tired

But I'm wide awake
