my happiness

i see your shadow on the street now, i hear you push through the rusty gate, click of your heels on the concrete, waiting for a knock coming way too late, it seems an age since i've seen you, countdown as the weeks trickle into days, so you come in and put your bags down, i know there's something in the air, how can i do this to you right now, if you're over there when i need you here, my happiness is slowly creeping back, now you're at home, if it ever starts sinking in, it must be when you pack up and go, it seems an age since i've seen you, countdown as the weeks trickle into days, i hope that time hasn't changed you, all i really want is for you to stay, i know i know i know what is inside
