Ballboy - Absent Friends lyrics

Don't bend down in front of me It's more than I can take Don't brush the hair out of your face It's more than I can take Here's to absent friends Who might never meet again Here's to you and I and everything Try your best not to smile at me It's more than I can take Or stand in close proximity It's more than I can take I had my life straight Before you came And now I fail to sleep through the night I fail to sleep through the night I can't learn anything from everything that's happening So don't give me things you once held Expect me still to breathe Don't go and get your hair cut nice And show it off to me Here's to absent friends Who will never meet again Here's to you and I and everything They'll hold a wake in the blasted night For the names of you and I Wide awake in the middle of the night For you and I And now I fail to sleep through the night I fail to sleep through the night I can't learn anything from everything that's happening It's more than I can take.
