You’d say, "Don’t wait up for me," but I could never sleep
Pulling coffee cups down at midnight
Why does the overnight show its teeth and bite
When I gently asked it to play nice
Grown, stoned, home alone
Can’t nobody love you through the telephone
Bad thoughts multiply
Ain’t nobody ever got the wings to fly
Trust is hard to please, everybody telling me that trust is free
Ain’t never rode the rides at the carnival inside my mind
Love, am I over you or did we fall asleep in shallow waters
Love, am I turning blue or did we fall asleep in shallow waters
The tide cast us out to sea
And I think you’d agree
No one’s meant to swim here for this long
Try to hold your breath and fight
Until the air is dry
Then we grab a towel and move on
Still young, have some fun
Ain’t nobody tell ya how the West was won
Good thoughts multiply
Ain’t nobody ever got the wings to fly
Love is hard to please, everybody telling you that love is free
Ain’t never rode the rides at the carnival inside your mind
