She Says Don't Miss Me
The Clarks · Fast Moving Cars [2004]
She is sitting all alone but he sent flowers
All alone she sits there thinking this is not right
She questions all her thoughts at home for hours
He offers nothing in return for her to sit tight
Her dreams are tired and bound
Her stars are all falling down
I won't make a sound
She just sleeps right through the day when the suns up
Never knowing how to finish her dreams
All her friends will go away when she wakes up
She won't need them when there's something to believe in
The nighttime isn't so kind
Too many truths there to find
I won't change her mind
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone
I will be alright
She says don't leave tonight
She wonders why it's not right
She sees her visions in flight
I will hold on tight
I won't give her a fight
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone
I will be alright
All alone she sits there thinking this is not right
She questions all her thoughts at home for hours
He offers nothing in return for her to sit tight
Her dreams are tired and bound
Her stars are all falling down
I won't make a sound
She just sleeps right through the day when the suns up
Never knowing how to finish her dreams
All her friends will go away when she wakes up
She won't need them when there's something to believe in
The nighttime isn't so kind
Too many truths there to find
I won't change her mind
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone
I will be alright
She says don't leave tonight
She wonders why it's not right
She sees her visions in flight
I will hold on tight
I won't give her a fight
She says don't miss me
I will be alright
Because I'm not alone
I will be alright
