Album: Seven More Minutes
Intro: C# A# G# ( Carries into verse )
Verse 1:
It s about time you made a choice
of when you re coming over
I asked you a long time ago,
but still there s no word
Of when you ll leave your friends for me
In the itinerary
there s a thousand places we could meet
Manhattan, Pittsburgh, Paris, France,
or Columbus, Ohio
Australia, London, Tokyo
but still you say no!
I don t care, but need to know
when you ll join me out on the road
What will it take for you to go,
Chorus:
(You know I try) You re not tryin
(But I m so tired) Keep tryin
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But you just keep sleeping
You keep sleeping
Verse 2:
It s about time you came to me
I m always crying to you
One last shot I can try to do,
out of desperation!
Send an airline ticket to your home
But you probably won t show,
waiting at JFK with little hope
Chorus:
(You know I try) You re not tryin
(But I m so tired) Keep tryin
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But you just keep sleeping
You keep sleeping
Bridge: x4 then (Ring)
Chorus:
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But, you just keep sleeping
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Or you ll just keep sleeping
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But, you just keep sleeping
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Or you ll just keep sleeping
You keep sleeping
You re not tryin
Keep sleepin
You re not tryin
