The Remedy (10/2007)

This pain has gotten worse,
Like a hunger that can't be fed.
When you don't know if it's night or day
Because you can't get out of bed.

No aspirin or morphine
Can numb this pain of mine.
No medication of any kind
Can get you off my mind.

When my heart is aching, I feel like breaking
Because nothing seems to do.
Not even a doctor can cure me
When the only remedy is you.

I try to sing
To dry my tears,
But my smile's been lost
For what seems like years.

I need you with me,
I need you here.
I need to hear your voice
Inside my ear.

Only you can cure my pain,
Only you can make it go away.
I know I have to let you be,
But a dose of you is all I need.
