I STAYED UP ALL WEEK

I stayed up all night just to hear the click of the door as you walked in; I felt like a fat man (full of love) made thin.
I stayed up all night just to lightly touch your neck, but I couldn’t yet.
Because you said, “Alot has happened since I’ve last labored your eyes”.
Yeah, you said, “Though, it is quite nice to see you too”.

I stayed up all week just to hear what your verdict said; I felt like a fresh bouquet of flowers stalling their impending death.
I stayed up all week just to lightly touch your neck, but I couldn’t yet.
Because you said, “Maybe our time has passed”.
Yeah, you said, “Or maybe, just maybe, we could make it last”.

I stayed up all night just to watch the moon undress; I felt like a dictaphone trying to remember all the words you said.
I stayed up all night just to lightly touch your neck, but I couldn’t yet.
Because you said I need to shower first.
Yeah, you said, “Questions are good, because now I’m sure”.
Yeah, you fell into my exhausted arms.
Yeah, you never once felt so warm -- as you do tonight.
