I can't fall asleep she says
So sing to me.
All about the things you're all about
And let me hear
'Cause here and now is all we have
She cries and outside it starts raining

She says and I don't know why I have to try
To keep myself from dreaming
Something silent and insane
Keeps reminding me
That people don't change

It's just a matter of time
Before we find it won't work out
And I don't mind, but just this once
I'd like to know ahead of time
It seems like times keep passing me by
And I'm just here to pass the time
Not knowing what I'll find
And I don't like not knowing
No, not knowing half the time
So I'll just save some time and say goodbye

She says and I don't know why
It seems to fly
And leave me here still waiting
For that moment, for a sign
For an omen
A break in the rain.

I just never thought it'd ever
Happen to me
It seems too hard to believe
That it'd be this easy
I just hope you understand
That I don't think I can
And he say's, "Try."

She says and I don't know why
I have to try
To keep myself from dreaming
Something silent and insane
She stops crying
But outside it keeps raining

She says and I don't know why
It seems to fly
And leave me here still waiting
For something silent and insane
To keep reminding me
That people don't change
