Not tonight

Wake up,
shivering.
(its summer)
3 am.
Cry.

I love you more,
than I did before.
If I don't see your face
(again)
I want you to know.
I love you,
and I need you.
So please,
please
don't go.

When you're gone,
so will be
p ie ce s of my heart
(I'll be missing you)

When you go,
the face I know
will be gone too.

(If you go)
the words I need to hear
(that get me through the day)
make me okay.
will be gone.

I always needed you
by my side.
But I never thought I,
(would need you there
when I cried.)
The weeks feel like months,
the days are eternities.
can you see how much I need you
(now?!)

So please
please
(please)
I said.
Don't go.
Hang on,
(if only one day more.)
I'll stay here.
I'll hold your hand.

I'll try to believe you,
when you tell me
(it will be okay.)
I'll try to believe you.
I wont.
Today,
I'm not ready.
Tomorrow,
(maybe I will be.)

I know,
eventually,
(you will have to)
let go.
Just please,

not tonight.
