Alone Time

Music: Natalie Holmes I want more alone time But when I get it I get bored When you′re gone I have to stop myself From buying a ticket out When you're here I′m distant Can't sleep all weekend I'm making soup like there′s no tomorrow Mending a dress like I know how to sew Trying to have my Saturday like all the rest And savour this time at home I could be out on the road and singing My big heart out every night Is it healthy to only have one thing That makes my heart feel alive Apart from you I′m sorry I don't sleep and you gotta deal with tears You I know that you love me but often I′m not me I disappear Who Knows how I'll wake up How much space I′ll take up I'm sorry I don′t sleep honey And you gotta deal with me and my muddy mind
I want the best of both worlds Can I borrow bits of you And keep the pieces of me too We're almost how I tasted us Easy as apple pie A windfall myriad Of what we nearly had Am I allowed to say it's painful When I′ve got love and I′ve got a dream Talking to positivity to strike a deal It never quite makes the team I could be out on a great adventure People would stop and say you're glowing dear But I need to find light in my own home And feel what it feels like Without you I try to stop myself from Leaving me on the shelf Like I′m a doll Or a stuffed toy And it's a beautiful thing Being an animal I′m a lion on it's best and worst nights But I still don′t know if I've got fight But I've got you I′m sorry I don′t sleep and you gotta deal with tears You I know that you love me but often I'm not me I disappear Who Knows how I′ll wake up How much space I'll take up I′m sorry I don't sleep honey And you gotta deal with me and my muddy mind
