God Gave Me...

God gave me eyes so I could see,
God gave me legs so I could walk,
God gave me hands so I could feel,
God gave me ears so I could hear,
God gave me a nose so I could smell,
God gave me a heart so I could love,
God gave me a brain so I could think,
I’m still trying to figure out why God gave me you.

Can't Fall Asleep

My thoughts keep me up at night,
my tears put me to sleep,
my dreams wake me up,
after only an hour of sleep.

I can't rest no more,
I can't fall back to sleep,
so I lie in bed for hours at a time,
watching the clock as the time keeps going by.

I toss and I turn,
trying to find something comforable,
but when I'm almost asleep,
my thoughts wake me up again.

So I lay there thinking the thoughts,
that wont leave me alone.
I try time and time again,
but I cant fall back to sleep.
