Old man sits at his desk One year from retirement, And he's up for review Not quite sure what to do Each passing year The workload grows
I'm always wishing, I'm always wishing too late For things to come my way It always ends up the same I must be missing, I must be missing the point Your signal fades away and all I'm left with is noise
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
Poor little tin man still swinging his axe, Even though his joints are clogged with rust
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away Safe in monotony, day after day My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away Cold wind blows off the lake, and I know for sure that it's too late
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight, There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life. So wait up I'm not sleeping alone again tonight Between the light and shallow waves is where I'm going to die Wait up for me Wait up for me Wait up for me
