Wake Up Call

Tough times, well they come and go
But somehow this time, that isn't so
I've got too much time to think of the things that I've lost
This city, it used to be fun
And I felt so free, but now that she's gone
It's been so lonely. I'm finding it harder to breath
When will I wake up, and open my eyes
This feeling takes up too much of my time
Is she really worth it? I don't know

Now all I want is to talk with her
Then she'd find, this was all a mistake in leaving behind
And never think of this again
I turn on the radio for
Advice. This song's on. It's asking the same questions that I've got
It's good to know I'm not alone

I dream of standing in a payphone, just blocks from her house
And I said "Hey girl, why don't you come out?
I don't expect you to let me in. I know you never let anyone in."
Then she looked out her window
And down past the rain
And she said "Don't move. I can't lose you again."
The sound of that phone falling, as she came running towards me

But, before she got there, I was awake
And she was not there. I couldn't take
The emptiness that found me, now lonliness surrounds me again
I closed my eyes tight, and I tried to go back
It was a long night, but I couldn't go back
I only dreamt of falling, I only dreamt of falling, falling

I can't keep living in this dream
I can't just spend my life asleep
