Lyrics

Afterdark

[Verse 1]

Hope that you can see that I'm a better man

Than I was three years and fifty weeks ago

Hope you never think that I am better off

On my own, you're with me everywhere i go

[Pre-Chorus]

It's just, you like making plans

I don't know if I can

[Chorus]

I'm only free afterdark

I don't wanna keep you waiting up

Think I'm losing you, cause I'm spending too

Much time never giving up

So if we don't sleep

[Post-Chorus]

I think we can have it all

I think we can have it all

(I think we can have it all)

[Verse 2]

Wish that you believed in some kind of afterlife

Maybe then we'd have time to fall in love

The worst part of my mistakes is the aftertaste

And I'd never wash out passing you up

[Pre-Chorus]

So go on, make your plans

I'll fit them best I can

[Chorus]

I'm only free afterdark

I don't wanna keep you waiting up

Think I'm losing you, cause I'm spending too

Much time never giving up

So if we don't sleep

[Post-Chorus]

I think we can have it all

I think we can have it all

(I think we can have it all)

[Bridge]

All I can say to you is half the truth if you won't listen

I'll apologize but I won't change, so what's the difference?

'Till I choose to lose my time before the moon

Words will never be enough for you

[Refrain]

(I'm only free afterdark)

(If we don't sleep)

[Post-Chorus]

I think we can have it all

I think we can have it all

I think we can have it all

I think we can have it all

[Outro]

(I think we can have it all)

I tried to have it all
