I see you in the morning
Feel your fingers in my hair
Sometimes I still pretend you’re there
It hits me without warning
Your reflection walking by
But I know it’s only in my mind
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
Won’t you give me the part of myself that I can’t get back?
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
‘Cause I’d kill for you
And darling you know that
So I’ll light up a cigarette
I’ll drink it down ’til there’s nothing left
‘Cause I sure can’t get no sleep
And Lord knows there’s no relief
You held my heart in your fingertips
So now I drown in my bitterness
Oh, I can’t get no sleep
And I sure won’t, I sure won’t find no peace
No peace
All that I am asking
Is for a little clarity
That’s all that really matters to me
In and out of focus
Tears are in my eyes
We’re burning down the bridges this time
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
Won’t you give me the part of myself that I can’t get back?
Will you show me the piece of my heart I’ve been missing?
‘Cause I’d kill for you
And darling you know that
So I’ll light up a cigarette
I’ll drink it down ’til there’s nothing left
‘Cause I sure can’t get no sleep
And Lord knows there’s no relief
You held my heart in your fingertips
So now I drown in my bitterness
Oh, I can’t get no sleep
And I sure won’t, I sure won’t find no
I used to find comfort in your arms
Caught up in the wonder of your charms
I’ll cry for you, I’ll cry for you
I’d lie for you, I’d lie for you
But I don’t even know you anymore
So I’ll light up a cigarette
I’ll drink it down ’til there’s nothing left
‘Cause I sure can’t get no sleep
And Lord knows there’s no relief
You held my heart in your fingertips
So now I drown in my bitterness
Oh, I can’t get no sleep
And I sure won’t, I sure won’t find no peace
Sure won’t find no peace
Will you give me the piece
Will you give me the piece of my heart?
Will you give me the piece
Will you give me the piece of my heart?
