Pining Over You

PINING OVER YOU

I've been walking on a tightrope

Dreaming like a fool

Drinking too much whiskey

Pining over you

I've been making up old stories

Adding dollars to my dimes

Telling strangers how you miss me

Pretending that you're mine

Tonight there aint no moon, no more rivers to run

Coz there aint no you and me circling the sun

But I will not wake up from this beautiful dream

I will not see you in this world without me

I've been standing on the corner

Watching empty cars go by

Just beneath a street light

Trying to catch your eye

But all I get is wasted

Knowing you won't come along

Wrapped up in a memory

Like you're the only one

Tonight there aint no moon, no more rivers to run

Coz there aint no you and me circling the sun

But I will not wake up from this beautiful dream

I will not see you in this world without me

I'll keep walking on a tightrope

Dreaming like a fool

Drinking too much whiskey

Pining over you
