The World Spins Madly On

Woke up and wished that I was dead With an aching in my head I lay motionless in bed I thought of you and where you'd gone and let the world spin madly on Everything that I said I'd do Like make the world brand new And take the time for you I just got lost and slept right through the dawn And the world spins madly on I let the day go by I always say goodbye I watch the stars from my window sill The whole world is moving and I'm standing still Woke up and wished that I was dead With an aching in my head I lay motionless in bed The night is here and the day is gone And the world spins madly on I thought of you and where you'd gone And the world spins madly on.                                              -The Weepies

I Wish You Were Here

Its been a while since I saw you last All we had, all we shared, is a thing of the past. But even today, in my heart its your voice I hear And even now, I wish you were here. We talk everyday, anytime that is possible for us, We're on the phone till dawn from dusk. When you succeed, mine is the loudest cheer, More than ever somehow, I wish you were here. You know how I'm feeling without a word from me, You're a thousand miles away, but you still somehow see. You watch over me, even though we're not near, Over and over I repeat, I wish you were here. I close my eyes and I see your smiling face I yearn to be with you, play a game of chase. As the time flies by, distance becomes harder to bear, Everynight when I pray, I wish you were here.

I open my eyes to a different ceiling now, For a moment, I want to close them again. But then I open them as I remember my vow, And so it begins, my morning with hopes for rain. Monotonously I move, completing my daily chores, I realize I'm smiling, thinking about the dream I'd just seen. I am present here, while my mind wanders on different shores, And so it begins, my routine, like a fixed machine. The Sun is bright, the birds chirp tirelessly away, The mood is lightening now, and i feel the weight lift off me. The trees are tall, but where they are they stay, And so it begins, my day, with smiles as true as they can be. Its new, all this, its something unknown, I miss the old times, but i like it here. yes, I have reaped what once I'd sown, And so it begins, my hope with no single tear. Yes, I wish that this change would slow down, And yes, I know how less the possibility is, But I have the strength to get rid of my frown, And so it begins, my life...
