Half Asleep
Lyricist:Ben Folds
Half asleep, half a Billboard, half a street Well, that's my window All in all, if you wanna know I'm half asleep
Old friends and strangers They treat me like a little girl But not you, dear You were always here
Like back in the black and white spotlight And I'd smoked a packed house And you were sitting pretty then Just like you're doing now
I was so convinced or so they say I could have gone all the way Like everything else I did it halfway
Half asleep, that's where the dreams And demons meet Say stop the laughter, dim the roar This clown's not funny anymore
Friends used to say that to me Treat me like a little girl Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com But not you, dear You were always here
You're back when we tripped the light out of sight The band would play I'd sing my heart out for drunken crowds It didn't mean a thing
We were so alone I loved you so Doesn't seem like An hour ago
And when I'm down and out I try to figure out What was it all about? Was the spark always there?
I only know now I wanna take another breath
Half asleep, no keep talking, I'm still here Don't let them take you away, my dear Someone said, 'He can't hear you He's half asleep'
Half asleep
