The Shakes

When I don’t call and you wait I guess it seems I’m abominal Then I’m late and I sleep in I feel like a criminal Late at night, we’re in bed I can be like a dog The heating’s off, and you’re warm I don’t feel like catching a cold In any case, you don’t care You don’t feel like rubbing it in When I’m outside in the pouring rain I know you’ll let me in I give you all that I got You never have to ask You give me love and I know that it’s The best I’ll ever have, and that’s why Hey my babe I can’t sleep when you’re not in town Hope that you know I get the shakes when you’re not around In my window You see a sad pathetic clown I want you to know I get the shakes when you’re not around Now it’s you and it’s me I can’t believe we’ve been alone Spread apart sharing laughs and tears Over the telephone Said and done, set in stone, You’ve given me another chance A thousand miles or one inch Doesn’t make a difference
