Waking up thoughts running through my head
Four am I'm not going to sleep again
Look at star, how it shines
Light years above is where they resides
That's where I go when I can't sleep
A shooting star glistens up above
And I wish one day, I'll find my one true love
But until then, I try to forget
With a bottle in my hand
That's where I go when I can't sleep
Strumming a heart string
Like my calls you let it ring
Playing my last chord
Baby don't ignore
Wipe my tears as they hit the floor
Amongst the mess
The only time I rest
Is when I'm with you and I can't sleep
Stumbling down these lonely foreign roads
Who's this drunk standing in my clothes
Passing time, smoking a cigarette
Cause the fumes hurt less
Than thinking of you when I can't sleep
Strumming a heart string
Like my calls you let it ring
Playing my last chord
Baby don't ignore
Wipe my tears as they hit the floor
Amongst the mess
The only time I rest
Is when I'm with you and I can't sleep
Why can't I
Can someone tell me why
You got me up all night
And I can't sleep
Strumming a heart string
Like my calls you let it ring
Playing my last chord
Baby don't ignore
Wipe my tears as they hit the floor
Amongst the mess
The only time I rest
Is when I'm with you and I can't sleep
