Jet Lag

The only girl I’ve ever loved Left me alone in the summer months She boarded a plane We’ll reunite in 10 weeks time I might of slowly lost my mind But that’s okay I stood there and we locked eyes As we said our last goodbyes She walked away Since that day I’ve struggled to sleep The night has got the best of me To my hearts dismay It feels like jet lag I just sleep all day Feels like jet lag It’s all I can take Can’t be jet lag Cause I’ve not left home Feels just as bad When I’m on my own Feels like jet lag Everyday that you’re gone I filled my days counted time Stayed up for calls pretended fine But it wasn’t that way From the moment that you left my arms I couldn’t stand morning alarms And the length of the day Honestly it seemed to me I’m an artifact of history I wasn’t the same And I remind myself so helplessly It’s only the small matter of 70 days I’d write letters I’d stay up all night Make you feel better When you weren’t alright We didn’t talk much We’d just never rest We didn’t talk much Maybe it’s for the best It feels like jet lag I just sleep all day Feels like jet lag It’s all I can take Can’t be jet lag Cause I’ve not left home Feels just as bad When I’m on my own Feels like jet lag Every day that you’re gone Every day that you’re gone And it’s 3 months on Oh you’re back in my arms And I can finally switch off Oh I can finally switch off --- Jet Lag - Adam Barnes
