If These Sheets Were States Lyrics

[Intro]
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again
Lost in empty pillow talk again

[Verse 1]
This bed's an island made of feathered down
And I'm stuck here alone

Little else but memories of you on memory foam
Visions of a brighter love, I'd kill for one more day
To pool my thoughts and find the words to say

[Chorus]
If these sheets were the states and you were miles away
I'd fold them end over end to bring you closer to me

Because I don't sleep at all without you pressed up against me
I settle for long distance calls
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again


[Verse 2]
This room's become a mausoleum filled with relics of regret
Paying dues to every moment wasted on words left unsaid
Collisions of a finer love, I'd kill for one more way
To tell you how you make me better every day

[Chorus]
If these sheets were the states and you were miles away
I'd fold them end over end to bring you closer to me
Because I don't sleep at all without you pressed up against me
I settle for long distance calls
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again
[Bridge]
Lost in empty pillow talk again
Lost in empty pillow talk again

[Chorus]
If these sheets were the states and you were miles away
I'd fold them end over end to bring you closer to me
Because I don't sleep at all without you pressed up against me
I settle for long distance calls
I'm lost in empty pillow talk
I settle for long distance calls
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again
I'm lost in empty pillow talk again

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
