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 is 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) 

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')
