Each time you leave

I can't know when

you will slip in

and lean against my door

And I will try to hide my eyes,

seal my voice,

try to deny,

how long I have

waited here for you

Now I'm broken, hoping

that you'll glue me up again

All I seem to do

hold my breath,

waiting here for you

And all I seem to want

is the warmth

of your hands on me

I can't bear to think

of you leaving me again

And all I seem to want

is the warmth of your skin

I wait to hear

your car switch gears

last night's glasses

steam like cheap red wine

Your warm face

a thought misplaced

I sink into assorted grace

I pull up my shades

and finally sleep

Oh, I will eat up

every word you say

And if you love me

let me stay

And all I seem to do

hold my breath

waiting here for you

And all I seem to want

is the warmth

of your fingers too

I can't bear to think

of you leaving me again

And all I seem to want

is the warmth of your skin
