nine hours away   count the minutes pass the days

                                    
I'm all wrapped up in an endless haze   I'm missing you

                       
wish you could poison me with your stare

                                           
heart and soul beyond repair   but you sit idley unaware 

          
that i was missing you

                                           
oh my darlin will i see you again  i'd rather just pretend that you're 

                                                 
around   oh my darlin will i see you again i'd rather just pretend that

       
you're around 

                                           
got [bad word] another fight  it helps me sleep through the night

                                                       
well i still stare at your picture every night  well i was kissin' you

                                           
memories explode in thin air   fireworks of times we shared 

                                    
cause you sit idley unaware  that i was missin' you

                                             
oh my darlin'  will i see you again  i'd rather just pretend that you're 

                                                  
around   oh my darlin will i see you again  i'd rather just pretend that

                                                     
you're around      all the laws  and the sun don't seem to play  

                          
spend my days and my nights alone  

                                            
oh my darlin' will i see you again  i'd rather just pretend that you're

                                                 
around   it's alarming how my thoughts of you will send

                                      
me to a place i can pretend that you're around
