Can I Help It

You left one yesterday
You took my heart away
And now I dread each newborn day
Can I help it?
Can I help it?
Along each thoroughfair
While people stop and stare
I talk to you but you’re not there
Can I help it, sweetheart?
I try to sleep
My dreams are haunted
By a million stars that pry
How can I sleep?
Your eyes look just that way
The day we said goodbye…
