| It’s about time you made a choice of when you’re coming over
|
| I asked you a long time ago, but still there’s no word
|
| Of when you’ll leave your friends for me
|
| In the itinerary there’s a thousand places we could be
|
| (one thousand places we could be)
|
| Manhattan, Pittsburgh, Paris, France (Paris, France) or Columbus, Ohio
|
| Australia, London, Tokyo (Tokyo) but still you say no!
|
| I don’t care, but need to know when you’ll join me out on the road
|
| What will it take for you to go, (what will it take for you to go)
|
| (You know I try) You’re not tryin'
|
| (But I’m so tired) Keep tryin'
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| But you just keep sleeping
|
| You keep sleeping
|
| (you're not trying)
|
| It’s about time you came to me (it's about time you came to me) I’m always
|
| flying to you
|
| One last shot I can try to do, out of desperation!
|
| Send an airline ticket to your home (to your home to your mama and papa)
|
| But you probably won’t show, waiting at JFK with little hope (now you know it)
|
| (You know I try) You’re not tryin'
|
| (But I’m so tired) Keep tryin'
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| Try, try to stay awake
|
| But, you just keep sleeping
|
| Try, try to stay awake (try to stay awake) (you're not tryin')
|
| Try, try to stay awake (try to stay awake) (you're not tryin')
|
| Try, try to stay awake (try to stay awake) (you're not tryin')
|
| Or you’ll just keep sleeping
|
| (you keep sleeping) You keep sleeping (you're not tryin') You’re not tryin'
|
| (keep sleepin') Keep sleepin' (you're not tryin') You’re not tryin'
|
| (Keep sleepin', keep sleepin') |
