Whatever
Zak Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me what's got you so scared
Is it the prospect of losing it all so quickly?
The unknown destination to which you fall toward so swiftly
Grab your bottle of whiskey or is it wine
It's a long story? Well, I've got time
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Whatever it takes to see you right
I don't know, I feel like I'm going crazy
It's cliche, I know, it's silly, fine
But I can't dream about anything else, you fulfil me
Grab your bottle of whiskey or is it wine
It's a long story? Well, I've got time
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Whatever it takes to see you right
Fall into the arms of your lover
You never know what can be discovered about
What goes on in this convoluted head of mine
When I close my weary eyes
Grab your bottle of whiskey or is it wine
It's a long story? Well, I've got time
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Whatever helps you sleep at night
Whatever it takes to see you
