Me in This Time of You
(J2Y)
c 2021 LJ Perfetti


I can feel lonely, though you’re by my side
I slip into yesterday, that crazy ride.
You’re here one minute and I’m so alive,
Then my mind goes blank and the past arrives.

What does it take to stay here with you?
Slay the old demons down, keep today in view.
But my world goes black, and the past is back,
It’s so easy, so deadening, for me I lose you

Won’t you stay with me, be with me,
‘til your love makes it through,
Then I can be me in this time of you
Stay with me, be with me,
And with your love as glue
I can be me in this time with you.

Your eyes are still searching to see where I gone,
I’m feeling like a boy who just messed up again
Your hands don’t comfort, they sting on my skin
I’ve lost you to another time before we begin.

Won’t you stay with me, be with me,
‘til your love makes it through,
Then I can be me in this time of you
Stay with me, be with me,
And with your love as glue
I can be me in this time with you.
