it comes to me in waves


things around the room i see keep reminding me
of you

still can't bring myself

to leave this bed
i only shared with you

i dream about the time of day
i'd start to make my way to you
waking up, the lights are down, i feel around for you

then it hits me
you're not with me, anymore

X's on your eyes
again, i realize
it's all a memory
because you're not here with me, anymore
X's on your eyes
X's on your eyes

i see you give me one of your looks that i adore
i knew just what to do

we spend the whole day at home and turn off the telephones, just us two
they can't get through
we don't have to talk all of the time, i'm fine just being here with you
a thousand lives could pass me by, still i will never say goodbye to you

well do you miss me
you're not with me, anymore

X's on your eyes
again, i realize
it's all a memory
because you're not here with me, anymore
X's on your eyes
X's on your eyes

it comes to me in waves, my prescription's late and i start thinking about the way it used to be
well maybe it's my mind trying to be kind or maybe i just won't concede

you're not with me
anymore

things around the room i see keep reminding me of you then it hits me

X's on your eyes
i just can't disguise
that all i wanted to do was spend my life with you, forever more
X's on your eyes
X's on your eyes
