She Waits 'til I'm Asleep

by Kasey Chambers

on Wreck & Ruin (2012)

I bring no news and life is shit
That you're off somewhere livin' it
And here I am still calling you
I learned to cry but I kept my wits
And I quit my job for the hell of it
And here I am still loving you

Jenna, she waits 'til I'm asleep
And haunts me in my dreams
Jenna, everyone's asleep
And I'm wide awake, she kills me slowly, kills me slowly

Well, I pretend I'm over it
And I dealt myself a nasty trick
And here I am still calling you
And I lay awake and I shake it while
My mind is off somewhere in style
And here you are

If I grabbed your attention I wouldn't know what to say
Somewhere, somehow I died along the way

Jenna, she waits 'til I'm asleep
And haunts me in my dreams
Jenna, everyone's asleep
I'm wide awake, she kills me slowly, kills me slowly
Kills me slowly
