The Shakes

When I don't call and you wait 

I guess it seems I'm abominable 

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
