Lyrics

It Ends With My Longing For You
© 2011 Nelson Wright

I don’t want to go to sleep,
Though sleep is overdue.
I’d rather walk the floor,
For one more night, or two.
But I know just how it ends,
It’s a case of deja vu,
It ends with my dreaming of you.

I don’t want to concentrate,
On things I ought to do.
Don’t want to meditate,
On one more point of view.
‘Cause I know just how it ends,
Doesn’t take that much ado,
It ends with my thinking of you.

Baby it’s a crying shame,
I had to learn what I didn’t know then.
You set my heart aflame,
Then you left me all these loose ends.


Baby it’s a crying shame,
I had to learn what I didn’t know then.
You set my heart aflame,
Then you left me all these loose ends.

I don’t want to turn around,
Straighten up, and start anew.
I’ll take it lying down,
With one more drink, or two.
I know just how it ends,
In the foggy morning dew,
It ends with my longing for you.

I know just how it ends,
In the foggy morning dew,
It ends with my longing for you.
