Alone Beside You

You ask me how my day has been

I start, you turn the volume down

But halfway through,

you leave the room

I save the rest for when you're back

There's always something else to do

I need a little more of you

I'm screaming, but no one hears

You're close, but you can't hear me

I'm right here,

I'm right here

When did you stop looking for me?

We sleep beneath the same old sheets

I know which way you'll turn tonight

I try to find the words again

You say we're both too tired to fight

I'm trying to get through to you

You hear a fight in all I do

I'm screaming, but no one hears

You're close, but you can't hear me

I'm right here,

I'm right here When did you stop looking for me?

Don't fix it

Don't explain

Sit with me

Let me say

I'm lonely

Here with you

Does that hurt

To hear me say?

I'm screaming, but no one hears

You're close, but you can't hear me

I'm right here,

I'm right here When did you stop looking for me?
