BRIAN MCKNIGHT - Trying not to fall asleep lyrics

rate me

My eyelids are getting very heavy

My will to stay away is getting weak

As I lay here in the night

My eyes turn out the light

I know that’s so much to see

If I close my eyes I know that I’ll be missing something

A shooting star or something good on the TV

Buddy, don’t be mad if you hear me crying

I’m only trying not to fall asleep

Whatever is gone on outside my window

I’m not trying enough to look on there and see

When things go boom in the night and I’m terrified of fight

I thank to God that I’ve Teddy next to me

If I close my eyes I know that I’ll be missing something

A shooting star or something good on the TV

Buddy, don’t be mad if you hear me crying

I’m only trying not to fall

I’m just trying not to fall

I’m just trying not to fall asleep.
