When I'm alone,

Undistracted

My mind free to wander

However much I might

Insist you don't haunt me at night

My thoughts crawl back to you

When I'm alone,

Undistracted

I'm distracted by the thought of you

And what we could've been

If you were a bit different

And I with a little less baggage

But maybe that's why I fell for you

Because you acted the way you do

Baby, I swear it wasn't supposed to be this way

I wasn't supposed to end up calling

You my baby in my reveries

But i was supposed to whisper your name

When you stirred in my arms

Maybe things were supposed to be this way

I can see the future, a future without you

Finally the tunnel is approaching an end

But maybe I don't want to leave

Maybe I want to stay

Maybe I like the dark

It's cold, reminds me of you

February's cold shoulder could

Take lessons from you

I'm a master of disguise

But at the end of the day

Magician hat off, I'm a normal guy

And my feelings tumble out

Like the white, pure bunny

But you don't appreciate my tricks

So I lay in bed

Struggling to get out of quicksand

Especially when it's you

But I've done this before

No struggling, no quick action

Peacefully, slowly

That ice cream we ate on our first date

But vanilla isn't as good as chocolate

And just how hot is the perfect hot chocolate

And marshmallows were magic

You hated marshmallows

Oh, for Pete's sake

Like I said

However much I might insist

My thoughts aren't haunted by you

They always, always come back

Crawling back to you

Baby, they always do.
