Stay Awake (Dreams Only Last for a Night)

[Verse 1] Caught in a cold sweat Stuck splitting hairs and drinking too much I'm on my way to striking out Go to sleep with the pressure of everyone watching and waiting They're yours for the taking, but I still have my doubts [Pre-Chorus] Before you ask which way to go Remember where you've been [Chorus] Stay awake, get a grip and get out You're safe from the weight of the world Just take a second to set things straight I'll be fine, even though I'm not always right I can count on the sun to shine Dedication takes a lifetime But dreams only last for a night [Verse 2] Figure it out Boy, you're tripping so pull yourself together Or you'll wash up like the rest This ship is sinking I'm thinking I'm done for I'll watch as the sails disappear under water 'Cause I'm no captain yet [Pre-Chorus] I said, "Before you ask which way to go Remember where you've been" [Chorus] Stay awake, get a grip and get out You're safe from the weight of the world Just take a second to set things straight I'll be fine, even though I'm not always right I can count on the sun to shine Dedication takes a lifetime But dreams only last for a night [Bridge] Believe you, me I'll give them everything I'd tell them anything To show them everything Believe you, me I'll give them everything I'd tell them anything To show them everything 'Cause you ain't the only ones who want to live it up You ain't the only ones You ain't the only ones who want to live it up You ain't the only ones You ain't the only ones who want to live it up You ain't the only ones You ain't the only ones who want to live it up You ain't the only ones [Chorus] Stay awake, get a grip and get out You're safe from the weight of the world Just take a second to set things straight I'll be fine, even though I'm not always right I can count on the sun to shine Dedication takes a lifetime But dreams only last for a night
