You're what keeps me up now
How long have I been asleep
Were we dreaming when the river ran a moat to surround me
Or did you wake up by my side and slip out through the floodgates
to the highway, all the while soft as a mouse
I'm just sure you meant to call me by now
and the weather's got the phone lines
and my spirit on the ground
Silly woman, you better wise up, hell
You know the dance by now
Why not ever in
Time to save yourself and
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about
Eighteen and selfish, lovesick and alone
Go figure it was time to grow myself a backbone
I had heard you made it to a better music town
Pretty sure you'll love somebody till
You say she holds you down and
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
Were we dreaming when the river ran a moat to surround me
Or did you wake up by my side and slip out through the floodgates
to the highway, all the while soft as a mouse
I'm just sure you meant to call me by now
and the weather's got the phone lines
and my spirit on the ground
Silly woman, you better wise up, hell
You know the dance by now
Why not ever in
Time to save yourself and
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about
Eighteen and selfish, lovesick and alone
Go figure it was time to grow myself a backbone
I had heard you made it to a better music town
Pretty sure you'll love somebody till
You say she holds you down and
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
You, you're what keeps me up now
