My Thief

When i go to sleep, you become my thief
 Why don't you steal what you can keep?
 But you won't let me be
 You break into my dreams
 And every day seems different
 Sometimes i pretend you'll come back again
 And you'll console the heart you stole
 Have pity on the man
 Who knows that you have gone
 And has begun to break down
 I feel almost possessed
 So long as i don't lose this glorious distress then
 You can take all i have left
 I know it's over
 If you can't be my lover
 Be my thief
 I'm so drowsy now, i'll unlock the door
 What fades in time will hurt much more
 So here's that happy scene
 Where you come back to me
 It's only found in fiction
 I feel almost possessed
 So long as i don't lose this glorious distress then
 You can take all i have left
 I know it's over
 If you can't be my lover
 Be my thief
 i didn't lead you on,
 But there will always be
 A little larceny in everyone
 So hush and don't you cry
 I'm trying to be kind
 Because i have a perfect alibi
