Not an Early Bird

I am not an early bird but just for once I woke in darkness
Last nights fireworks still exploding
I had hoped that you might write me tell me you've been dreaming of me
It got late I lay there weeping
Morning came and went
While I shivered cursing foolish things I said
Another disappointment what did I expect

No more hanging round for love that clearly isn't there
Even when the promise seems to linger in the air
All it does is show me how nobody really cares
I am surely better off alone

I'm not one to burn the candle but for once I lay there restless
Trying to keep the fire from fading
I had hoped that you might write me tell me you've been yearning for me
It got late I lay there weeping
Midnight came and went
While I wondered if I'm just too much to take
Another reason for me not to leave my bed

No more hanging round for love that clearly isn't there
Even when the chances seem to linger in the air
All it does is show me how nobody even cares
I am surely better on my own
