Keep Sleeping Songtext
von The Rentals

It′s about time you made a choice of when you're coming over
I asked you a long time ago, but still there′s no word
Of when you'll leave your friends for me
In the itinerary is a thousand places we could be
(One thousand places we could be)

Manhattan, Pittsburgh, Paris, France or Columbus, Ohio
(Paris, France)
Australia, London, Tokyo but still you say no
(Tokyo)
I don't care, but need to know when you′ll join me out on the road
What will it take for you to go?
(What will it take for you to go?)

(You know I try)
You′re not tryin'
(But I′m so tired)
Keep tryin'


Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But you just keep sleeping
You keep sleeping
(You′re not trying)

It's about time you came to me, I′m always flying to you
(It's about time you came to me)
One last shot I can try to do, out of desperation
Send an airline ticket to your home
(To your home to your mama and papa)
But you probably won't show, waiting at JFK with little hope
(Now you know it)

(You know I try)
You′re not tryin′
(But I'm so tired)
Keep tryin′

Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But, you just keep sleeping, keep sleeping

Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
Try, try to stay awake
But you just keep sleeping


Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
But you just keep sleeping

Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
(You're not tryin′)
Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
Try, try to stay awake
(Try to stay awake)
(You're not tryin′)
Or you'll just keep sleeping

(You keep sleeping)
You keep sleeping
(You're not tryin′)
You′re not tryin'
(Keep sleepin′)
Keep sleepin'
(You′re not tryin')
You′re not tryin'
(Keep sleepin', keep sleepin′)
