Lyrics
VERSE 1
I can tell by the glow of the clock radio,
I'm only half way through the night.
I've got a long way to go with my mind in overload
and the end is not in sight.
Now I'm lying here awake
with my eyes closed tight.
How much more can I take
with all that's on my mind....on my mind?
PRE-CHORUS
I think about...
bills I have to pay and the well is running dry,
my doctor left a message, but he didn't say why.
My daughter turned sixteen the boys are hanging 'round
chipped my tooth at lunch am I gonna need a crown?
I think about...
pink slips they start next week,
I hope they pass me by.
I don't know what I said,
but I know it made my wife cry.
LIFT
The holidays are near, the credit card is tapped,
lightning struck the house, now the TV is zapped.
CHORUS
I think about...
falling back to sleep
I try with all my might
I do my best thinking
In the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
I do my best thinking
in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
I do my best thinking
in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
VERSE 2
My pillow seems to be like Muhammad Ali
and I fear I losing the fight.
There are aches in this bed and pains in my head
it's a long way to morning's light.
Now I lying here awake
with my eyes closed tight
how much more can I take
with all that's on my mind....on my mind?
PRE-CHORUS
I think about....
girls I used to know and where they are today
if my wife could read my mind I'd have to move away.
I can't run very far got pain in my knees
I think I need glasses 'cause it's getting hard to read.
I think about....
a song stuck in my head,
one I just can't stand.
I need to cut back on my drinking,
get on a diet plan.
LIFT
My son won't talk to me 'cause he can't use the car
I can't find my cell phone, did I leave it in the bar.
I think about....
CHORUS
