Lyrics
If you stay awake
Then I might dream of you
If I stay awake
Picture photographs
Never frame a view
That I seem to take
Whatever’s tomorrow
Seems harder
Than what I
Can take
Whatever’s tomorrow
Seems harder
I know I
Might brake
I waited through the days
Just to see your face
What more could I do
I’d forfeit summer’s grace
Just to keep this place
And share it with you
Whatever’s tomorrow
Seems harder
Than what I
Can take
Whatever’s tomorrow
Seems harder
I know I
Might brake
