I lost you seven years ago today
I still have the watch you gave me
I think about it every day
It sits inside my house inside a desk inside my room
It goes off every night at three A.M. just like you used to
I'm okay if it keeps me up all night
It gives me something to hold on to
I can't bring myself to take the batteries out
Cause' I'm afraid that I could lose you
I know they'll die eventually just like you
I just hope they don't die so soon
I'm still not comfortable when we speak about the dead
At the mention of the subject your name fills up my head
There's not a whole lot I can do about that
I'd really just like to roll time back
To when you'd wake me up to tell me the things you forgot before bed
It's okay if it keeps me up all night
It's really something I hold dearly
I can't bring myself to flush your memories out
Cause' I'm afraid that you'd stop haunting
The desk inside my house inside a drawer inside my room
You wake me up still every morning
I know I'll die eventually just like you
I just hope that when I do that you'd be there too
I'm not tryin' to die but I'm not beggin' to stop
I think I just really miss you
I don't know how to say this right but I hope I see you soon
It's okay if it keeps me up all night
It's really something I hold dearly
I can't bring myself to flush your memories out
Cause' I'm afraid that you'd stop haunting
The desk inside my house inside a drawer inside my room
You wake me up still every morning
