[Verse 1] Waitress keep that coffee comin' Keep my synapses hummin' Lord knows I got nowhere to go Just pour another cup of Joe [Verse 2] I know I should be headed home But I’d just be there all alone Everything we had is gone And I gotta face another dawn [Chorus] If I sleep, I'll be seeing you And I really don't want to I miss you enough; it's a lot to take And it hurts even when I'm wide awake [Verse 3] The jukebox plays our favorite song The one we used to sing along A memory I can't erase I close my eyes, I see your face [Chorus] If I sleep, I'll be seeing you And I really don't want to I miss you enough; it's a lot to take And it hurts even when I'm wide awake [Bridge] In dreams, you're laughin', clear and bright I know it isn't real But real is how it feels. And when the mornin' light breaks through I wake up to the painful truth So I'll keep the lights on tonight [Verse 4] My eyelids are gettin' heavy now I've got to stay awake somehow Another lonely night I'll keep Countin' tears instead of sheep [Outro] Yeah, it hurts even when I'm wide awake I miss you enough, for heaven's sake Just keep that coffee comin' strong 'Cause I can't dream if I'm too far gone No, I can't dream of you tonight Gotta stay awake until the morning light
