Up Late

i cant sleep
im up late
i drank coffee
im up late
i talked to a friend
im up late
i watched tv
im up late

im thinkin about how u made me feel
now that spot is empty
im up late
im thinkin about all the worries of the day
how can i fix these problems here
im up late
bills bills bills bills
how are you gonna get paid
im up late

than i closed my eyes and said a prayer
than i heard the wisper in my ear
goodnight child sleep tight
everything will be alright
