You're sleeping night and day

How you do it

Me I am wide awake

Feeling defeated

I say your name

I say I'm sorry

Oh no it's not working

I'm no holiday

It's nobody's fault

No guilty party

You just got nothing

Nothing left to say

Another year gets away

Another summer of love

I don't know why I care

We miss it every summer

I say your name

I say I'm sorry

I'm the one doing this

There's no other way

It's nobody's fault

No guilty party

I just got nothing

Nothing left to say

It all, all catches up to me

It all, all catches up to me

All the time

I say your name

I say I'm sorry

Oh no it's not working

I'm no holiday

It's nobody's fault

No guilty party

You just got nothing

Nothing left to say

I say your name

I say I'm sorry

I'm the one doing this, there's no other way

It's nobody's fault

No guilty party

I just got nothing

Nothing left to say

It all, all catches up to me

It all, all catches up to me

All the time
