Due Date

You’re seven days away and I can’t wait another day

Without you I’m awake, waiting in a dreamless state

Twenty four hours a day the second hand will tick away

And for one second there I swear I saw your face

But you’re six days away, as I forget how to relate

I watch the cigarettes burn away into my plate

Five sleepless nights, I fight the boredom and the early light

The very thought of you and all again is right

One more hour to go, there’s nothing wrong

Two too long to know, when all is gone, there’s nothing wrong

Three two and one, all gone

The cloak will not be waited on

Heart skipping beats to meet the fated only one

No more hours to go, and nothing wrong

Two too long to know, when all is gone, there’s nothing wrong

And when you see her, there’s nothing wrong
