I've been stayin' up late
|
Just a thinkin' about
|
Ways to get you off my mind.
|
|
I keep wanderin' around
|
Through all the lonely
|
Parts of town
|
To try and see
|
If I might could ever find
|
One last hope
|
That I could cling to
|
In case I make the break through
|
And finally get you off my mind.
|
|
I tried givin' up dreamin'
|
But your memory kept schemin'
|
And found all kinda ways
|
To sneak back into my sleep
|
I finally quit talkin' to strangers
|
Out of fear there's always
|
The danger
|
They say hi, hello,
|
Or somethin' else
|
You might'a said to me.
|
|
I've been stayin' up late
|
Just a thinkin' about
|
Ways to get you off my mind.

|
|
I swore to never
|
Get caught looken
|
At a single picture
|
That was tookin'
|
Of us or anywhere we ever went
|
Or ever even seen
|
I don't dare watch the news
|
'Cause the wrecks
|
And the crashes
|
Can remind me too
|
That I used to ride around
|
And go places
|
In cars with you.

I've been stayin' up late
