The Rag Doll

I’m lying alone between cold sheets
It’s dark and the day is barely new
How many nights must I face like this?
Lying alone with the memory of you

Deep down in my heart I feel the pull
Deep down in my soul is something cold
Lying alone with the chill on my skin
Dying a death with nobody to hold

It seems I am destined to walk these streets
Arm in arm with my solemn despair
Over my shoulder a casual glance cast
I had the feeling that you may be there.

Deep down in my head I know it’s not right
Deep down my body is aching alone
Lying in bed with your name on my lips
Dying my death when there’s nobody home

I’m crying inside shedding silent tears
I’m bleeding to death from the hole in my heart
Take me away from this pain that I’m feeling
Don’t leave me alone with my soul torn apart

Deep down in my mind I know that you care
Deep down I can sense you’re thinking of me
Lying alone in a bed cold like mine
Longing and praying at last to be free
