Optimus Prime Lyrics

alone in the dark
the tractor trailers
the weekend vacationers
the stereo's on
and it's keeping me up

i'm tapping at the rhythm on the wheel
count down highway signs
and now since the last time
i felt all right
when your hands were so close to mine.

the bed, it wasn't big enough
for the both of us, but no one slept on the floor.
i watch you sleeping there so soundly
through the mirror that hung on the back of your door.

there was no sense in sleeping
when everything i'd been dreaming
was lying right in front of me.
i spent the night dreaming wide awake
and when the day broke
it was all that i could take to let you go.

to my hand we stumbled home
i'm under-dressed and not used to this cold, but
there's enough left in this bottle
to keep us both warm.
please keep me warm.

it's up the stairs to your room
so defenseless and wrapped up in you
closed doors, closed eyes
drew back a breath and i
have never seen eyes so bright.
can't wait till i sing about tonight.

the bed, it wasn't big enough
for the both of us, but no one slept on the floor.
i watch you sleeping there so soundly
through the mirror that hung on the back of your door.
there was no sense in sleeping
when everything i'd been dreaming
was lying right in front of me.
i spent the night dreaming wide awake.
when the day broke
it was all that i could take to let you go.
