I Can't See Myself (Getting To Sleep Tonight)
And if the sun sets a mile ahead
Maybe there we can just pretend
This time, it just seems...
If I could do it all over again,
And skip those mistakes I made back when
It's just the kind of situation that I was in
To take my life and turn it back around again.
I find it hard to understand
That when we look back at all our time spent
You tell me some things just may seem
To matter more to me.
And if the sun sets a mile ahead,
Maybe there we can understand
This time, it just seems.
If we can forget just what was said.
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end
Take our time, maybe we'll grow up,
But you'll learn from what you've done.
You might believe in what you see,
But no, it never made sense to me.
(So I'll do it all over again)
But I learned from all of my time spent
You can't believe in the words that people said.
If I want something done I'll have to do it myself again.
It makes sense a lot more to me
To see who they are and not who they want to be.
The sun set is a mile ahead,
And maybe then we can understand
That all (all) of our dreams have never made sense to me.
(And if the sun set is a mile ahead
Maybe there we will finally understand)
And now it just seems.
If we can just forget what was said.
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end.
Take our time, maybe we'll grow up,
But you'll learn from what you've done.
You might believe in what you see,
But no, it never made sense to...me.
I'm so sick of closing my eyes (I'm so sick of closing my eyes)
That I can't see myself getting to sleep tonight
Cause' all these dreams are locked in my mind,
And they'll keep me awake for days at a time.
Can't forget just what was said.
Maybe then we'll understand
That all of our lives will be so perfect in the end.
If we forget what was said
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end.
Take our time, maybe we'll grow up,
But you'll learn from what you've done.
You might believe in what you see,
But no, it never made sense to me.
