Yoakam, Dwight - Stayin' Up Late Lyrics






I've been stayin' up late
Just a thinkin' about
Ways to get you off my mind

I keep wanderin' around
Through all the lonely
Parts of town
To try and see
If I might could ever find
One last hope
That I could cling to
In case I make the break through
And finally get you off my mind
I tried givin' up dreamin'
But your memory kept schemin'
And found all kinda ways
To sneak back into my sleep

I finally quit talkin' to strangers
Out of fear there's always
The danger
They say hi, hello,
Or somethin' else
You might'a said to me

I've been stayin' up late
Just a thinkin' about
Ways to get you off my mind

[Solo]

I keep wanderin' around
Through all the lonely
Parts of town
To try and see if I might
Could ever find
One last hope
That I could cling to
In case I make the break through
And finally get you off my mind

I swore to never
Get caught looken
At a single picture
That was tookin'
Of us or anywhere we ever went
Or ever even seen
I don't dare watch the news
Cause the wrecks
And the crashes
Can remind me too
That I used to ride around
And go places
In cars with you

I've been stayin' up late
Just a thinkin' about
Ways to get you off my mind
I keep stayin' up late
Just thinkin' about
Ways to get you off my mind

    Stayin' Up Late (Thinkin' About It)
    Dwight Yoakam

    I've been stayin' up late
    Just a thinkin' about
    Ways to get you off my mind
    I keep wanderin' around
    Through all the lonely
    Parts of town
    To try and see
    If I might could ever find
    One last hope
    That I could cling to
    In case I make the break through
    And finally get you off my mind

    I tried givin' up dreamin'
    But your memory kept schemin'
    And found all kinda ways
    To sneak back into my sleep

    I finally quit talkin' to strangers
    Out of fear there's always
    The danger
    They say hi, hello
    Or somethin' else
    You might'a said to me

    I've been stayin' up late
    Just a thinkin' about
    Ways to get you off my mind
    I keep wanderin' around
    Through all the lonely
    Parts of town
    To try and see if I might
    Could ever find
    One last hope
    That I could cling to
    In case I make the break through
    And finally get you off my mind

    I swore to never
    Get caught looken
    At a single picture
    That was tookin'
    Of us or anywhere we ever went
    Or ever even seen

    I don't dare watch the news
    'Cause the wrecks
    And the crashes
    Can remind me too
    That I used to ride around
    And go places
    In cars with you

    I've been stayin' up late
    Just a thinkin' about
    Ways to get you off my mind
    I keep stayin' up late
    Just thinkin' about
    Ways to get you off my mind
