Array ( [sid] => 75030 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => In My Lonely Bed [time] => 2004-12-09 10:10:09 [hometext] => I lay gazing at your empty pillow where you normally rest your head... [bodytext] => I woke up this morning in my lonely bed,
I think me & unhappiness finally have wed,
Missing you there I lay all alone,
Longing to hear the tinkling of my phone.

I touched the pillow where you usually lay,
This I know is going to be a long, long day,
It will drag as it does when I am by myself,
Feel like just sitting upon the unhappy shelf.

Bed feels cold where it usually feels warm,
I know now I am vulnerable against the storm,
How I long to see your head on your pillow,
Stop me from feeling like a little weeping willow.

I pulled the covers just the little bit higher,
To try to compensate for the lack of your fire,
But it just didn’t feel the same, nowhere near right,
Still I pull the covers around me so tight.

I close my eyes & imagine that you are there,
I feel lonely, I can’t feel you loving stare,
The one you do when you look at me asleep,
The one I know that in my heart I’ll forever keep.

I lay there thinking only of you,
Wonder if you are thinking of me too,
I can’t wait until I hear my phone as it rings,
As I know it’ll be you with a message of love to bring.

You capture the feelings so well.I know I'd rather be with my love than have to lie there alone.....it isn't just the bed that feels empty when your partner isn't there, it's your heart too
