An original song by Jeff & Dave

lyrics

If I close one eye then at least I’ll get some sleep.
Half as much, maybe. That’s all I need.
Ever grateful even for one wink.
I think it’s all there is to wonder what it is.

And I remember the last time I was here
And why I said I’d always stay clear

This the last time I can take
Trying to sleep thru an earthquake
Feelin the rumble and the shake you’re giving off
I know you're tired and it’s getting late
And sometimes love can be hard to fake
But I’m lying here awake, waiting on the aftershock

Maybe I’m a worrier but it got me this far.
So maybe I’ll just worry on some more.

And I could make a break for the door.
My feet aren’t nailed to the floor.

This the last time I can take
Trying to sleep thru an earthquake
Feelin the rumble and the shake you’re giving off
I know you're tired and it’s getting late
And sometimes love can be hard to fake
But I’m lying here awake, waiting on an aftershock

You should be the last thing I see at night
And the first thing I see when I rise.
