Valencia I Can’t See Myself (Getting to Sleep Tonight)
And if the sun sets a mile ahead
Maybe then we can just pretend
This time it just seems
If I could do it all over again
Id skip those mistakes I made back when
Its just the kind of situation that I was in
To take my life and turn it back around again
I find it hard to understand
That when we look back at a hard time spent
You tell me some things just may seem
To matter more to me
And if the sun sets a mile ahead
Maybe then I can understand
This time it just seems
If we can forget just what was said
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end
Take your time, maybe well grow up
But youll learn from what youve done
You might believe in what you see
But no, it never made sense to me
If I could do it all over again
Would I learn from all of my time spent
You can't believe in the words that people said
If I want something done Ill have to do it myself again
It makes sense a lot more to me
They see who they are and not who they want to be
The sunset is a mile ahead
Maybe then we can understand
That all, all of our dreams
They never made sense to me
Now that you say
If we could just forget what was said
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end
Take your time, maybe well grow up
But youll learn from what youve done
You might believe in what you see
But no, it never made sense to me
Im so sick of closing my eyes
That I can't see myself getting to sleep tonight
'Cause all these dreams are locked in my mind
Theyll keep me awake for days at a time
If we can forget just what was said
Maybe then well understand
That all of our lives, theyll be so perfect in the end
If we forget what was said
Maybe then we can pretend
That all of our lives will be perfect in the end
Take your time, maybe well grow up
But youll learn from what youve done
You might believe in what you see
But no, it never made sense to me
