I'll Let You Know

In the morning I'd see you go...
watched you have a cup and
do your face... sitting there...
"Hot in here", doing your hair.

So many times I'd just want
to stretch you across the table.
"...have your way with me."
Tell me how much you want me.
Take it, take me as much as I'm able

Send you off to work .
Take me off too!
All of me!
Take me off!!... and
off to work with you.

I didn't want to say goodbye then.
Why do I have to say it now?
You still go where you go.
I've lost track of where you've been.

You look at me bad... you're mad.
I'm the worst you've ever had.
I make you so sad... so you say.
I'm the worst... you've ever had.
You've had enough...
I've been had enough.

Now it's done! Go have some fun.
Peace, love and all that.
Everything with you is always very good.

Hey stuck up! I'm still stuck on you.
And in case you haven't heard...
It's not over till I'm over you.

Lady on the table... stuck on you
Take it, take me as much as I'm able
Take part of me, take it from me...
off to work with you again.
Take me off... and off to work with you!
I can dream all I want... because
It ain't over till I'm over you.

I live here too.
It ain't over
Till I say so...
till I'm over
Once again,
Over and over
And when I'm good and ready
I'll take off and take you off my list
I'm not done yet... I'll let you know!
I know it sucks. It's sucks for me too.
It's not over til I'm diddly done over you.

Turn Off The Lights

I've been thinking about sleeping...
earlier days... times of tucking in
all the begging and convincing...
for just some water for drinking.

Those nights before my birthday
or before the last day of school.
The nights before Christmas
and school rhymes with yule.

I'm looking for an answer
for why I still must remember.
Covers and fresh air
just my nose could gather.

Over my head I still pull them tight
I'm not scared, just out of sight.
I pray to God if I die this night
It'll be just like they say
walk straight, right into the light.

There's no place like home and
here again I'm about to sleep.
Now I'm tucking myself in
and talking to no one.
I'm missing her... thirsting,
convincing and begging.
