I'm sick of second chances
Cigarettes turn to ashes
I'm standing under street signs
To know the places I've been my whole life
I watch the hours pass us
Another one burns to ashes
I'm waiting for your phone call
To come and save me
So you can break my fall
[Chorus:]
I will stand outside,
Wait for you to come find me
I will keep on my light
By my bed till you get home
And I won't sleep tonight till you get home
I won't sleep tonight till you get home
My bed light's burning brighter
Worn out like a boxing fighter
You've got me fighting pillows
My eyes just won't close
Till you're at my side
The hours slip to morning
And I see the sun coming up.
I'm turning off the TV
Faster than you gave up on me
[Chorus:]
I will stand outside,
Wait for you to come find me
I will keep on my light
By my bed till you get home
And I won't sleep tonight till you get home
I won't sleep tonight till you get home
I got your letters that you sent to me
And it feels like summer
But you're far away from me
When I really need you here
[Chorus:]
I will stand outside,
Wait for you to come find me
I will keep on my light
By my bed till you get home
And I won't sleep tonight till you get home
I won't sleep tonight till you get home
