Sleeping & Waking

Just for the record
You ought to know that I love you
Cause the damage that youve done
I know you still could do
So fun time is over
And I guess its enough
Oh but just for the record
It was a little to rough
All that night when I looked for you
Without a word to say
Knowing that I was looking through
The longest night the longest day
Sleeping and waking is the hardest thing to do
When you are taking every dream I had of you
Sleeping and waking
Tell me what love is or rather what you expected
Because Ive often wondered what you did not get
When all through the town I heard your heart beating wrong
I felt the sickness come on I knew that you were gone
So now Im left with an empty bed
What a place to stay
Saying things that were never said
Through the longest night, the longest day
Sleeping and waking is the hardest thing to do
When you are taking every dream I had of you
Sleeping and waking is the hardest thing to do
When you are taking every dream I had of you
Sleeping and waking
Sleeping and waking
Sleeping and waking
Makes the longest night
The longest night
The longest night
The longest day
