When You're Sleeping

Alexa Wilknson

I'm running out of time
And I can't keep this inside anymore but you
Can't see right into my eyes
So I'll just tell you this, tonight
You don't know how it feels to love you like I do
And keep it bottled up inside


I'm running, out of excuses for words that I stutter
When I want to say I love you
You don't know, what I would give to tell you
Can you only hear me when you're sleeping'


I think so, so I'll just tell you with your eyes closed


So I tried to tell you a thousand times before
To both of our surprises I just wound up crying
Over my speakerphone, swear you've got a voice for radio
But your face is just so god damn beautiful to me
I can't so no, not even when you make me cry
I just keep it bottled up inside


I'm running, out of excuses for words that I stutter
When I want to say I love you
You don't know, what I would give to tell you
Can you only hear me when you're sleeping'


So I tried to tell you, a thousand times before but you turned away
And said so sweetly don't let my door hit you on your way out
Then I tried with all my might
To make my tired eyes to cry
Woke up this morning an realized it happened yesterday
You still said no


The stupid words that I stutter when I want to say


I'm running, out of excuses for words that I stutter
When I want to say I love you
You don't know, what I would give to tell you
Can you only hear me when you're sleeping'
