My eyelids are getting very heavy
My will to stay away is getting weak
As I lay here in the night
My eyes turn out the light
I know that's so much to see
If I close my eyes I know that I'll be missing something
A shooting star or something good on the TV
Buddy, don't be mad if you hear me crying
I'm only trying not to fall asleep
Whatever is gone on outside my window
I'm not trying enough to look on there and see
When things go boom in the night and I'm terrified of fight
I thank to God that I've Teddy next to me
If I close my eyes I know that I'll be missing something
A shooting star or something good on the TV
Buddy, don't be mad if you hear me crying
I'm only trying not to fall
I'm just trying not to fall
I'm just trying not to fall asleep.
