There's a lot for me to say,
About a hundred ways for me to wrap my words around your face, but it won't do any good,
I never really could convince you that, when I said to leave, I really meant, "Please stay"
There, I've said it now, too late,
It's late, I've got to get up early.

Hey, I'm dying to get some sleep, baby,
It seems crazy to me, maybe,
I'd like to turn to stone tonight,
Try to forget the day that I chased you away, baby,
Will you be coming home tonight'

If I'm sitting in some bar, or driving in my car, I don't really think of you at all,
But back here in my room, with the morning coming soon, I roll around, and wonder where you are, and where you'd rather be this late,
It's late, I gotta get up early.

Hey, I'm dying to get some sleep, baby,
It seems crazy to me, maybe,
I'd love to turn to stone tonight, and try and forget the day that I lost you,
Now I know what it's like to be alone,
Will you be coming home'

Well, it's not my history; this song's not about me at all,
Just trying to conjure up some fantasy - do you believe me now'
This late, too late,
I've gotta get up early.

Hey, I'm dying to get some sleep, baby,
It seems crazy to me, maybe,
I'd love to turn to stone tonight, and try and forget the day that I lost you,
Now I know what it's like to be alone,
Will you be coming home'
I'm trying to get some sleep, baby,
It's me, it's me,
Are you coming home tonight'
