I'm sick of second chances

Cigarettes turn to ashes

I'm standing under street signs

To know the places I've been my whole life



I watch the hours pass us

Another one burns to ashes

I'm waiting for your phone call

To come and save me so you can break my fall



I will stand outside, wait for you to come find me

I will keep on my light by my bed till you get home

And I won't sleep tonight till you get home

I won't sleep tonight till you get home



My bed light's burning brighter

Worn out like a boxing fighter

You've got me fighting pillows

My eyes just won't close till you're at my side



The hours slip to morning

And I see the sun coming up

I'm turning off the TV.

Faster than you gave up on me



I will stand outside, wait for you to come find me

I will keep on my light by my bed till you get home

And I won't sleep tonight till you get home

I won't sleep tonight till you get home



I got your letters that you sent to me

And it feels like summer but your far away from me

When I really need you here

I will stand outside, wait for you to come find me

I will keep on my light by my bed till you get home

And I wont' sleep till you get home

I won't sleep tonight till you get home
