Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Looking it over
Thinking about all the times we've spent together
Don't worry about it
'Cause the feelings I have no longer seem to be with me

The morning moved on to the night today's away
Falling apart 'cause the night can't take the grey

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Made it through the bad times
Cried all my tears have to move on with my life now
Know that I will be strong
Now you'll always be mine never one to say goodbye

The morning moved on to the night today's away
Falling apart 'cause the night can't take the grey

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

No more heartache to get me down
No more sadness to be yeah
No more waiting till you come round
You know that you're the only one for me
For reasons maybe only I can see
Yeah

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
From one broken heart to another
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

    Very beautiful song. Though some of the lyrics are wrong. It should be "I'd say that I'm emphatic" instead of "I'd say that I'm in fat ache"

I believe this is another amazingly on point and nuanced commentary on the insanity that follows emotionally abusive relationships. The abuser has no anxieties, no emotional pain, or salience/memory for that matter, so the survivor appears to be the crazy one, obsessed with the abuse and that buzzword that seems to ignite arguments about diagnosing people without a degree, etc. funny how you say the words domestic violence, abuse, abuse survivor and boom the subject changes. Anyways, I especially relate to her midnights becoming afternoons, complex PTSD often leads to this phenomenon, whether due to purposeful sleep deprivation by the abuser, or just hyper vigilance associated with the PTSD, along with the fear of facing people, especially your loved ones, who Never actually understand, even if they try, because all they see is you, on fire, screaming about the arsonist that no one ever sees, and who has been spreading lies about your alleged mental instability, deceptive personality, etc. the whole time. While the last thing survivors need is more blame, our society supports a narrative that blames the objectively innocent party because the blatantly guilty party has spent their entire lives fabricating a persona and we’re just being human, and human psychology is quite counterintuitive especially in the context of trauma. Look at Amber Heard. Vilified and not believed, regardless of what any abuse survivor could recognize as a fellow survivor instantly. But Johnny depp is a malignant narcissist, a man, and wealthy as all get out. It’s sick.
