[Verse 1]

Long nights, no sleep

The sun glares through your window and the birds all start to speak

You might as well get up and start your day

'Cause I've heard sleep is for the weak, you can dream while you're awake

You're a big kid now, no need for lullabies

But sometimes it's just so damn hard to close those eyes


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe you've been overthinking

Maybe you've been overdrinking

Maybe you just got caught up watching your favorite Netflix show

Maybe your whole ship is sinking

Trying to sleep, but you're just blinking

Maybe you're scared when you'll wake up, you'll have no place to go


[Chorus]

I can show you the ropes, my dear

I can trade you all my hope for all your fear

Your hand fits in mine just like a glove

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up


[Verse 2]

Long days, no action

Makes you look back on all the times saying, "Oh my God, what happened?"

Can we turn back the small hand on the clock?

'Cause you could use a little jet lag with a whiskey on the rocks

You're a big kid now, no need for lullabies

But sometimes it's just so damn hard to close those eyes


[Pre-Chorus]

Maybe you've been overthinking

Maybe you've been overdrinking

Maybe you just got caught up watching your favorite Netflix show

Maybe your whole ship is sinking

Trying to sleep, but you're just blinking

Maybe you're scared when you'll wake up, you'll have no place to go


[Chorus]

I can show you the ropes, my dear

I can trade you all my hope for all your fear

Your hand fits in mine just like a glove

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up


[Post-Chorus]

When you wake up

And I wish that I could that I still be there


[Bridge]

Mirror, mirror on the wall

I don't think I'm my best at all

I'm losing my colorful complexion

And somebody give me a call

Need to wake up before I fall

And maybe just a little direction


[Chorus]

I can show you the ropes, my dear (Maybe you've been overthinking)

And I can trade you all my hope for all your fear (Maybe you've been overdrinking)

Your hand fits in mine just like a glove (Maybe your whole ship is sinking)

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

I can show you the ropes, my dear

I can trade you all my hope for all your fear

Your hand fits in mine just like a glove

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up


[Post-Chorus]

When you wake up

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up

When you wake up (Up, up)

And I wish that I could still be there to hold you when you wake up


[Outro]

(When you wake up)

And I wish that I could still be there to
