Darkness comes in like lightning Daytime answers to midnight Scared to death of the silence Make last orders, hopes and kisses Then you're on your own Look for stars in the black sky Who's feeling the same way? Fill the blanks with distractions Read a story, have some coffee Bags under your eyes I watch the sky I'm waiting for the day to rise I wish the sun Could stay awake all night ♪ Move random but still here Some returning to sleep fear Limerick, Dublin or London Twilight biding, eyelids fighting Staring way up high I watch the sky I'm waiting for the day to rise I wish the sun Could stay awake all night ♪ Stay awake Go to bed when morning's broken Stay awake Watch the dark with me Stay awake Listening for any songbirds Wait 'til dawn Until you go to sleep I watch the sky I'm waiting for the day to rise I wish the sun Could stay awake all night I watch the sky I'm waiting for the day to rise I wish the sun Could stay awake all night ♪ I'm waiting for the day to rise Could stay awake all night
