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

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
