i hate to be the one

to tell you this was all your fault

don't want to be the one

to tell you taking me for granted was the best

and worst mistake you ever made



north shore in the sand

your naked body fills my hands

the long islands sound is beautiful

and you don't want to go home i swear



you'll sleep again, you'll sleep again

if it means i have to build you a bed

you'll sleep again, you'll sleep again

i'll do the best i can



i'm writing home to tell you that i miss it all so terribly

in the way that makes your stomach ache

and your hands begin to shake

my hands still shake



i need to see my friends and i want my family

germany is beautiful but i want to go home i swear



i'll sleep again, i'll sleep again

happiness is my own bed

i'll sleep again, i'll sleep again

get me on a plane i'm dead



empty breakdown lands and truck stop phones

leave the door unlocked i'm coming home

it's people like you that keep me going strong



i'll sleep again, i'll sleep again

happiness is my own bed

i'll sleep again, i'll sleep again

get me on a plane i'm dead



lonely highway my old friend

i'm here to keep you warm again
