What’s up with my heart when it skips a beat
Can’t feel no pavement right under my feet

Up in my lonely room
When I’m dreamin’ of you
Oh, I, god I do
I still need you and,
I just want you now.

Up in my lonely room
When I’m dreamin’ of you
Oh, I, god I do
I just need you but,
I still want you now

“Hey, Willy.” I called across the room as he fixed his neon orange eyes on me.

“You can meet him later,” I said, gesturing toward the kitten. “But what did you think of my song?”
