Woke up one morning
I heard a song arrive
Had wasted my luck
I almost felt alive
Wrote parts of it down
Before I had to go
To earn what drink
To learn what I know
Later that night
I met a girl I need
She turned off the lights
I'm in between her sheets
Our bodies were one
Minds so far apart
And I ask myself
Why did we even start
Why can't you see
What you want in life is not for me
And while you sleep
I write down another end to be
Deep end for you and me
She told me of boys
She once had before
Was hooked on a dream
I never could afford
Her future was bright
Mine was in discord
But I chose my life
I never will be bored
Why can't you see
What you want in life is not for me
I dropped from the wheel last century
I will thank you for the time
Your beauty was for me
Part of my history
Why can't you see
What you want in life is not for me
And while you sleep
I write down another end to be
Why can't you see
What you want in life is not for me
And while you sleep
I write down another end to be
Deep end for you and me
Deep end for you and me
Deep end for you and me
Deep end for you and me
