16

It’s been sixteen days since you left me,

Told me we were through,

For sixteen days I’ve been thinking,

Of nothing else but you,

My friends when they come to see me,

Say I’ve got to try to forget,

So here I am in this nightclub,

Trying but then yet,

I miss you every second of every day,

I love you why did you have to turn me away?

I want a girl with bright blue eyes,

To pick me up and tell me lies,

Buy me a drink and treat me right,

Take me home, take me tonight,

And when I wake the pillows empty,

I don’t care that all she did was use me,

Just as long as I’m not alone tonight,

When the lights go out hold on tight.

I’ve been sixteen minutes stood at this bar,

Watching the world go by,

Sixteen tequilas are singing their song to me,

And a tear forms in my eye,

My friends are all out there dancing,

Each talking to a girl,

But I can’t help myself from thinking,

There’s nothing left in this world,

Without you what is to come of me,

I loved you but you said you had to be free.

I want a girl with bright blue eyes,

To pick me up and tell me lies,

Buy me a drink and treat me right,

Take me home, take me tonight,

And when I wake the pillows empty,

I don’t care that all she did was use me,

Just as long as I’m not alone tonight,

When the lights go out hold on tight.

 

It’s been sixteen hours since she left me,

Lying in my bed,

As I watched her sneak out of my door,

I thought of you instead,

My friends have all been calling me,

Asking how I spent the night,

Should I tell them of her bright blue eyes?

Or how she held me tight,

Or of you and what you meant to me,

I loved you but did you ever love me?
