Stay awake
Every night you sleep so soundless there next to me
Stay awake
Every night it just the back of your head that I see
Stay awake
Every night I just hope you’ll talk a little bit to me
Stay awake
Every night you just stagger in later the night before
Stay awake
Every night you seem to have drunken just a little more.

In my love lost sleep
All I do is weep
You soul is gone I’ve nothing to keep

Stay awake ~ darling
Don’t you know I just want to be part of your life
Stay awake ~ darling
Don’t you know you should share things your wife
Stay awake ~ darling
Can’t you spare a word to me about your work day
Stay awake ~ darling
How can it be that you’ve got nothing at all to say
Stay awake ~ darling
Don’t you know I cry watching you just slip away

In my love lost sleep
All I do is weep
You soul is gone I’ve nothing to keep

And I love you
And I need you
And I want you to be what you used to be
But I lost you
And I can’t do
When life is living without what used to be

Once I knew love and there was love in my heart
Now that love is tearing me apart
Love is washing away
A little more every day.

Gloom
Lyrics for Morbid Mange “Love Lost Sleep”

I have no idea what Morbid Mange is...am I missing something..

although this has a ring of truth in it for me..sometimes it is just too late.

Thank you, nakdthought,
Morbid Mange is the name of the group I wrote this for,
They call themselves Gothic Rock style
And this is suppose to be a ballad style softer song
I guess the want a change of pace in their songs.
I’ve never heard them in concert
And probably won’t
I prefer Bach
