Sleep Alone

Intro

Mmm, mm-mm

Verse

I fold the blanket at the edge of the bed

Set your pillow just the way you like

Dinner’s wrapped up, lights turned low

I tell myself you’ll walk through soon tonight

Chorus

We got a good life, steady and warm

Roof over us, kids all grown

But I miss your hand reaching out in the dark

Miss the way you used to pull me close

I go to sleep alone, alone, alone

Waiting on a kiss that never comes home

Verse

Clock hits eleven, then it hits twelve

My eyes get heavy, the house stays still

I wake up later to the sound of your keys

You slip in quiet, think I’m already deep

Chorus

We got a good life, steady and warm

Roof over us, kids all grown

But I miss your hand reaching out in the dark

Miss the way you used to pull me close

I go to sleep alone, alone, alone

Waiting on a kiss that never comes home

Bridge

We talk at breakfast, we laugh through the day

Share the same stories in the same old way

But when the door closes and the world gets small

I still reach for you and find nothing at all

Chorus

We got a good life, steady and warm

Roof over us, kids all grown

But I miss your hand reaching out in the dark

Miss the way you used to pull me close

I go to sleep alone, alone, alone

Waiting on a kiss that never comes home
