stay by my side

i cannot say where my heart is
it's all too much in my mind
the experience is gone before it's even here

there was love on my mind in the weekdays
and a longing for someone in the night
it was just a strive for what i can't have

stay by my side
as we hope for someone to show
don't leave my side
though it's not what we hoped for

you may take what you need when you want to
and use me up if you wish
feelings stay the same as i'm asleep

there was hope for a sense of belonging
and a story was played in my mind
a daydream's just enough for the state that i'm in

stay by my side
as we hope for someone to show
don't leave my side
though it's not what we hoped for

i don't want feelings
i don't want songs
stuck in my head too long
i don't need memories
to lean upon
when i know where i belong
