You're What Keeps Me Up Now

How long have I been asleep

Were we dreaming when the river ran a moat to surround me

Or did you wake up by my side and slip out through the floodgates

to the highway, all the while soft as a mouse

I'm just sure you meant to call me by now

and the weather's got the phone lines

and my spirit on the ground

Silly woman, you better wise up, hell

You know the dance by now

Why not ever in

Time to save yourself and

You, you're what keeps me up now

You, you're what keeps me up now

Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about

Eighteen and selfish, lovesick and alone

Go figure it was time to grow myself a backbone

I had heard you made it to a better music town

Pretty sure you'll love somebody till

You say she holds you down and

You, you're what keeps me up now

You, you're what keeps me up now

Maybe I'd write a song about you if I had any clue what you're about

You, you're what keeps me up now

You, you're what keeps me up now

You, you're what keeps me up now

You, you're what keeps me up now
