Lying Awake
I’m not one to make this kind of call
Step out on the edge and risk a fall
But I couldn’t let it go again
I’m doin’ what I can
So, please don’t turn me down sweetly
Tellin’ me maybe
Now I’m lying awake
Wonderin’ if you’ll never need me
Then tellin’ me “no” would be easier to take
You could say a hundred things or more
That might make me crumble to the floor
But at least I know just where I stand
So all that I’m askin’
Is please don’t turn me down sweetly
Tellin’ me maybe
Now I’m lying awake
Wonderin’ if you’ll never need me
Then tellin’ me “no” would be easier to take
Tonight I dreamed we were standin’
Out on a runway watchin’ the planes
Hopin’ you were a pilot
We could go flyin’
But now I’m lying awake
If I could I’d get this plane right off the ground
If I could I’d get this plane right off the ground
If I could I’d run so fast with open arms
I won’t look down
Please don’t turn me down sweetly
Tellin’ me maybe
Now I’m lying awake
Wonderin’ if you’ll never need me
Then tellin’ me “no” would be easier to take
Yeah, tellin’ me “no” would be easier to take
