daylight savings,

please save me. i’m sorry.

lost the hour and my baby;

both gone in the morning.

the sun lingers longer,

the night acts coy.

did this space get bigger?

am i feeling the void?

daylight savings,

i’ve waited too long.

you bring warmer weather;

you make me feel strong.

heal my skin and my soul,

as deep as you can.

turn my sins and my pain

to a sun-kissed tan.

daylight savings,

the cold season stole me.

if you’re finally here,

i’ll get rid of the old me. 

you know who i am,

and you know who i can be.

with a little sunshine,

i’ll forget those who hurt me. 

daylight savings, 

i’m ready for you.

wrap me up in your warmth

the way he used to.
