the lights are out again
and they'll shock you now and then
but maybe if i'm lucky
you'll be back before it's ten
i make you feel at home
i can't stand it here alone
being safe depends
on the day that never ends
it's the lonely sunshine
i pass through hours of light
'cause i won't get sleep tonight
unless Brooke and the Sandman
make sure everything's alright
it's the lonely sunshine
when it comes i will fall down
with you near, i will always be around
-
let me tell you something, about the way i am
i just need a helping hand, i'm sleepy as i can
it's not that i'm too helpless
it's not like i'm a child
but when i dream i'm all alone
i never hear your loving tone
talking in your sleep
you can't hear me when i speak
a conversation full of charm
and waiting for your clock alarm
but maybe i'm just jealous
'cause watching you ain't fair
can i get Brooke's beeper number
and page you when you're there
i know this must sound quite absurd
i know i must come clean
i can't express my love to you
but you know what i mean.
