The fall that breaks your bed Turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead You sigh, you shake your head It did what they asked us, but time drifted past I’m afraid
But I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of being tongue tied
If we can make it through tonight girl I know I won’t be alone again. [x2]
But I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of being tongue tied
If I don’t let you go tonight girl I know I won’t sing this song again
My lips are dry and your grip is tight girl But I know I won’t sing along again
But I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of being tongue tied
I know these wrongs don’t make it right girl But I know I will look on and admire So I will watch you here tonight girl Brighter and more like the embers of our fire
But I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of being tongue tied
So lately I’ve been working on this song of mine
The fall that breaks your bed Turns showers of sunlight to hours of hindsight instead You sigh, you shake your hair It did what they asked us, but time drifted past I’m afraid
But I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired, I’m tired of being tongue tied
