Heartsick












The juke box is playin’ sweet, sad songs down low
I’m sittin’ in an empty bar, my heart struck with an arrow
The bartender’s refillin’ my drink talkin’ like a hyper crow
Wish I had you with me babe, that’s something you should know
And I’ve been smokin’ cigarettes despite my promise not to
So sorry, please understand, it’s so hard to live without you
Every seat across from me is a space I save for you
But all through the night I’m talking to myself like no one should do

I would never lie about missing you
Every night I die inside for you
Wish you knew I cry because I still love you
I know we’re both imperfect
But separating makes me heartsick
Now I hear no music in this world without you

It’s three o’clock in the morning and I’m not tired at all
Unless you’re counting the days I’ve waited for your phone call
It’s been over a million years, baby, why must we stall?
Is there no way that I could fix our bond like a broken ball?
Something went wrong somewhere along the road we walked
I remember holding your hands, kissing your lips while we talked
Your smile against my skin left my heart in a pleasure shock
But what struck me most is when you jaywalked

I would never lie about missing you
Every night I die inside for you
Wish you knew I cry because I still love you
I know we’re both imperfect
But separating makes me heartsick
Now I hear no music in this world without you

I don’t hear your voice, life is soundless
I don’t see your face, flowers are colorless
I don’t feel you babe, everything’s cold
And now I’m growing old alone
(Guitar)

I would never lie about missing you
Every night I die inside for you

I would never lie about missing you
Every night I die inside for you
Wish you knew I cry because I still love you
I know we’re both imperfect
But separating makes me heartsick
Now I hear no music in this world without you
(Repeat x1)

Oh, without you
Every night I die inside
