Wet Sheets

Another night, another place

With no one to hold

I'm drunk, sitting by myself

Bored and getting cold

When will I find someone

Who wants to hold my hand?

Will I find a girl

Who'll call me her man?



My friend tells me be patient

Something's bound to come your way

I'm desperate, given half a chance,

I'd throw it all away

But I want something more

something that's gonna last

With her I'll see the seasons change,

The mud turn to dust



Now I'm wrapped in a blanket so warm and secure

I feel, her skin against my own

Noise outside, the dog barks, footsteps in the hall

Tells me my parents are home

A smirk upon her face as I stare into the space

That lies, between her and I

I know that tonight, I won't sleep alone

And my sheets will not remain dry



I'm running through the dark of night

Rain trickles down my cheek

At home they think I'm dreaming

They think that I'm asleep

But the comfort of my bedroom

It simply don't compare

When I see her face, her lips I'll taste,

I'll be dry and warm again



Now I'm wrapped in her arms, so warm and secure

Her dress, blows in the gentle breeze

Soft rain falls, a dog barks, friends call from up the road

Tell us, it's time to leave

A smirk upon her face as we arrive at my place

A street lamp illuminates my drive

I hope that tonight, I don't sleep alone

And that my sheets, will not remain dry
