Words
Jay & The Americans Lyrics


I don't wanna wait a lifetime
I don't want to wait a day
I've been working toward tomorrow
But it's always a peak away

So I'm counting yes I'm counting all my blessings in my hand
Work and love, my father for giving all he can
And I'm taking out a marble for each one that I abuse
Cause if words do the walking we'll be getting nowhere soon
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Rest your tired eyes
Sing you a sweet song about a starry night
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Bless your tired eyes
Would you rather leave it broken than try to compromise

I've seen early mornings and I
I've worked through sleepless nights
I have tasted good fortune and I've seen the other side
So I'm resting yes I'm resting this weary body in this bed

I know you're longing deep red love without regret
Now here we are old strangers that I can't deny
But if words do the walking
It'll be a lonely ride

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Rest your tired eyes
Sing you a sweet song about a starry night
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Bless your tired eyes
Would you rather leave it broken than try to compromise
