Stayin' Up Late

(album: Population Me - 2003)

I've been staying up late
Just a thinking about
Ways to get you off my mind

I keep wandering 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 giving up dreaming
But your memory kept scheming
And found all kinda ways
To sneak back into my sleep

I finally quit talking to strangers
Out of fear there's always
The danger
They say hi, hello,
Or something else
You might'a said to me

I've been staying up late
Just a thinking about
Ways to get you off my mind

[Solo]

I keep wandering 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 swore to never
Get caught looken
At a single picture
That was tooking
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 staying up late
Just a thinking about
Ways to get you off my mind
I keep staying up late
Just thinking about
Ways to get you off my mind
