sometimes i wake up without you next to me
my momma tells me it's a nightmare
sometimes i wake up and i walk out into the kitchen you're not drinking your coffee like you should be
my momma tells me it's a nightmare
sometimes i wake up and i walk into the kitchen and then i go out and you're not sitting on the porch puffing at your cigarette like you should be
my momma tells me it's a nightmare
sometimes i wake up and i walk into the kitchen and go out and get into the car and you're not in the passengers seat flipping through the radio stations
my momma tells me it's a nightmare
sometimes i wake up and i go everywhere around the house and i get in the car and i drive to your work and i look for you in the cafés and in the shops and at the park and you're not sitting or reading or shopping or chatting or smiling
my daddy tells me it's a shame
