I want to dream again Oh how I long to be led by a voice within But if it’s all in my head then I’ll live while I’m living and rest when I’m dead It’s not that bad
But I can’t help losing sleep When I’m lonely and in too deep Oh the secrets I can’t keep I’m sorry darling Damn, you’re gorgeous but you’re not for me So I’ll drift through another night I’m not great but I feel alright Though it tears me up inside to know I’m only getting lonelier as days go by
I’m losing steam again I started thinking I’m happy with where I am But I’ll hang in the gallows for being so damn shallow And I’ll admit there were better times I held you close as we slept on your parents’ bed And I was dreaming of falling in love but I knew it was all in my head I was just desperate enough to pretend
But I can’t help losing sleep When I’m lonely and in too deep Oh the secrets I can’t keep I’m sorry darling Damn, you’re gorgeous but you’re not for me So I’ll drift through another night I’m not great but I feel alright Though it tears me up inside to know I’m only getting lonelier as days go by To know our struggles get more difficult the harder we try To know I’m hanging by a thread and barely getting by
So you take me home Take a drink and take me out of these clothes I’ve been on my own for far too long
But I won’t lose sleep over someone I wouldn’t want to keep around me So forget about me And if I had the chance to glance upon her one last time Well I’d turn and look away And if I had the chance to walk beside her one last time Well I’d turn and walk away.
