Hope I don't wake in the morning
Find you running right away
Every hour I'm down and worried
Dream about night a day a-yay
To many places you can go
When drowning in your sleep
But no one wants to lay awake
For hours counting sheep
I'm fine what about you
OK tell me the news
We all know how to fight
When there's something to lose
In my mind I feel elation
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hope I don't wake in the morning
Find you running right away
Every hour I'm down and worried
Dream about night a day
For many days I know you'll go
Surrounded by four walls
And by yourself you'll stay inside
Behind your own front door
I'm fine what about you
OK tell me the news
We all know how to fight
When there's something to lose
In my mind I feel elation
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hope I don't wake in the morning
Find you running right away
Every hour I'm down and worried
Dream about night a day
Well I need to be on my way
Hope to get through another day
Well you know what shape I'm in
And it seems I can never win
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hope I don't wake in the morning
Find you running right away
Every hour I'm down and worried
Dream about night a day a-yay

Don't want a picture
To pin upon my wall
Just want some one to
Help me forget, that's all
I don't want to be here on my own
Hungry as a dog without a bone
Don't want a postcard
Showing some distant view
Just want some one to
Laugh when I blow a fuse
I don't want to be here on my own
Hungry as a dog without a bone
I don't want to be alone
I don't want to cry and moan
I don't want to be alone
I don't want to cry and moan
Nobody can hear a single word I say
As I walk the floor
Seems there's nothing more
Time to go to sleep once more
But in my dreams there's a place
Where it's never to late
I see nothing has changed
And that's where you still remain
Don't want a picture
Don't want a postcard
Don't want a picture
Don't want a postcard
Don't want a picture
Don't want a postcard
Don't want a picture
Don't want a postcard
Don't want a picture

Your face is like an angel
But what if you won't let me touch you
You could change into a dragon
But what if your flame is imagined
Feel like I'm lying on a bed of nails
You're taking the wind right out of my sails
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
I never hear you saying
I'm giving you all of my loving
I'm sure you've got a reason
But one day you know I'll get even
Feel like I'm lying on a bed of nails
You're taking the wind right out of my sails
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Yes I'm getting tired
Of playing diplomat
Why she always takin'
The shirt off my back
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't let go

Hey it's no surprise that you're going tonight
Well alright, had a funny feeling
I don't want to go on wasting your time
Well alright, had a funny feeling
That came the whole morning through
It's not hard to do
I'm just not getting through
Don't live a lie
I'd rather say goodbye
Please don't explain
No use pretending it's the same
You don't have to tell me I've known it all day
Well alright, had a funny feeling
I don't see a happy ending coming our way
Well alright, had a funny feeling
That came the whole morning through
It's not hard to do
I'm just not getting through
Don't live a lie
I'd rather say goodbye
Please don't explain
No use pretending it's the same
Hey it's no surprise that you're going tonight
Well alright, had a funny feeling
I don't want to go on wasting your time
Well alright, had a funny feeling
Don't live a lie
I'd rather say goodbye
Please don't explain
No use pretending it's the same

Beneath the scattered light
Across bare hills of night
I dreamt a train just missed me
Another came in sight
I ran across the track
Then had to turn right back
A new one came straight at me
The next behind my back
Nowhere else to turn to
There are walls on either side
Why must the embankment be so high
Beside myself with weakness
And faint from running wild
I could hear the sound of burning coal
They never seem to stop
But always get to smoke
Right out between two tunnels
I ran until I woke
. . .

I'm not on the ball
Living in a world of so much change
Thought that I might be much stronger
When I'm far away from you
What I'd give to learn to turn back time
Sometimes words are dancing
Like caterpillars moving on a page
I would send you all my letters
Feel like living in cage
What I'd give to learn to turn back time
Your love is bound to see me through
Your warmth is bound to find a way
Your touch is all I really need
Your smile, the one and only key
I'm not on th ball
Living in a world of so much change
Thought that I might be much stronger
When I'm far away from you
What I'd give to learn to turn back time
. . .
