Sleeping Lyrics by Ron Lynch

0

[Verse 1]
There were eighty songs I'd sing along to lying in the road
I took scissors in my pocket to guide you safely from my home
You were sleeping when I've got there, it was late
I knew it's what you'd wanted, but theres a choice you had to make

[PreChorus]
What the hell was I thinking?
(I wasn't thinking, I wasn't thinking)
What was a boy like me to do?

[Chorus]
Step by step
We will find our way to bed
Theres a look upon your face
And it scares me half to death

So between just me and you
What's the chance of breaking through?
I'm the captain of this ship
And if it sinks, then I sink, too

[PostChorus]
Oh, the way, that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you
Time and time again
It's the way, that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you
Time and time again

[Verse 2]
The nights were getting longer like the stories that we told
Of adventures that we've been on, so I took your hand to hold
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
These city roads are winding, but the lights will guide our way

[PreChorus]
What the hell was I thinking?
(I wasn't thinking, I wasn't thinking)
What was a boy like me to do?
And what the hell were we drinking?
What would you expect a boy like me to do?


[Chorus]
Step by step
We will find our way to bed
Theres a look upon your face
And it scares me half to death

So between just me and you
What's the chance of breaking through?
I'm the captain of this ship
And if it sinks, then I sink, too

[Bridge]
With every line that I wrote
And every word that I spoke
I ask to you: What's a boy like me to do?
With the choice you had to make
Came a heart you had to break
And I say to you, though that we made it through

[Outro]
The way, that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you
Time and time again
The way, that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you
Time and time again
