What About You - Allison Crowe

So you’re weary now

from the company you keep

lay down your head

and go back to sleep

back to sleep

Just wait till the end

it will be worth it I swear

so hold on, my friend

we’re almost there

Chorus:

Step back for a moment

and watch what’s going on around you

you’re so concerned with pleasing everyone

what about you?

I woke up at half past 12

half in and out of dreaming

I could barely hear

but I think that I was screaming

I tried to call out to you

be careful, they’re right behind you

but you turned to me and said, I’m dying

and it’s too late for anyone to save me Chorus:

Step back for a moment

and watch what’s going on around you

you’re so concerned with pleasing everyone

what about you?

repeat

So you’re weary now

from the company you keep

lay down your head

and go back to sleep…

how long do I have to wait here?

you leave me standing in the cold

how long will it take you to remember

while you’re still alive and growing old

I’m the only one who cares about you

so roll me over

shut me out

if that’s what you feel possessed to do whatever helps to get you through the night

yeah it may kill me but I’ll still love you

how long do I have to wait here

you leave me standing in the cold

how long will it take you to remember

while you’re still alive and growing old

I’m the only one who cares about you

I am

I am the only one

I am

I am…

how long do I have to wait here

you leave me standing in the cold

how long will it take you to remember

while you’re still alive and growing old

I’m the only one, I am the only one

I am you leave me standing in the cold

how long will it take for you to realize

that I am gone?
