| tough times, well they come and go
|
| but somehow this time that isn’t so
|
| I’ve got too much time to think of the things that I’ve lost
|
| this city, it used to be fun, and I felt so free
|
| but now that she’s gone its been so lonely
|
| I’m finding it harder to breath
|
| (chorus)
|
| when will i wake up and open my eyes
|
| this feeling takes up too much of my time
|
| is she really worth it, I don’t know
|
| all I want is to talk with her then she’d find
|
| this was all a mistake and leave it behind
|
| and never think of this again
|
| I turn on the radio for advice
|
| this song’s on, it’s asking the same questions that I’ve got
|
| but it’s good to know that I’m not alone
|
| 'cause I dream of standing in a pay phone
|
| just blocks from her house
|
| and i said, «hey girl, won’t you come out?
|
| I don’t expect you to let me in
|
| I know you never let anyone in»
|
| the she looked out her window
|
| down past the rain and she said, «don't move
|
| I can’t lose you again»
|
| the sounds of that phone falling
|
| as she came running towards me
|
| but before she got there
|
| I was awake and she was not there |
| I couldn’t take the emptiness that found me
|
| the loneliness surrounds me again
|
| tough times well they come and go
|
| but somehow this time that isn’t so
|
| I’ve got too much time to think of the things that I’ve lost
|
| when will I wake up and open my eyes
|
| this feeling takes up too much of my time
|
| is she really worth it, I don’t know
|
| I don’t want to wake up so
|
| I close my eyes tight, and i try to go back
|
| it was a long night, but I couldn’t go back
|
| I only dreamt of falling
|
| it’s when i dreamt of falling that I’d wake up |
