Motionsick

Better keep moving or I might fall down
Wish I didn't get so motion sick
I'd give up my kingdom for a break in this town
Nothing that I'm throwing out seems to stick
I've been sleeping like shit
I've been wasting my time
I've been trying to throw my pearls before swine
And I'm tired
I'm so tired

But tonight all I want is you

I've been drinking doesn't mean I've been thinking
Acting like I'm 19 feeling like I'm 41
I'm hiding out in the big city blinking
What was I thinking when I said we're done
My stitch is in time
But I still can't save mine
Just last week I had a dream you died
And I'm tired
I'm so tired

But tonight all I want is you

Better keep moving or I might fall down
Wish I didn't get so motion sick
I've been looking for you in all the bottles and the jars
I've been searching through all of the girls at the bars
And I'm tired
I'm so damn tired

But tonight all I want is you
