Punchline
Why Is He Right?
Why is he right
When I say goodnight
To you when you're never there?

I'm awake, I'm awake, I'm awake now
I've got to get back to sleep now somehow
If I lay on my side with my pillow
Maybe you'll fly in my window

Why is he right
When I say goodnight
To you when you're never there?

If you're not too busy tonight
Could you come visit me and my closed eyes?
Please don't leave before the warmth's realized
That it would be a big mistake
If I haven't already made it

It's getting late
I hesitate to even try now
Its worth it even if I'm tired tomorrow
Before the sun comes up today
I'm sure i'll be awake

Why is he right
When I say goodnight
To you when you're never there?

If you're not too busy tonight
Could you come visit me and my closed eyes?
Please don't leave before the warmth's realized
Or I smile and awake
Cause that would be a big mistake
If I haven't already made it

Do you think you can take it?

There's nothing between our eyes
This could be real
It's a surprise
If I wake up next to you
Good luck
I hope you're there
