Before You Sleep

Verse 1
If I yelled out for help
Would you hear me
And would you come to assist me
If you were the only person who could rescue me
What would you do if you had five seconds to make your mind up?
If you yelled out for help
I would hear you
And I would come to assist you
If I were the only person who could rescue you
It wouldn't take me a long time to make my mind up

Verse 2
We've spoken many times
We've also laughed and cried on the telephone
You told me what was going on there
And I told you what was going on around here
We keep on talking like everything's the same
I think you're trying to pretend that I never moved away
Maybe you're pretending that you still want to be with me
I want to know what's been on your mind

Verse 3
Are you starting to have doubts about you and I?
Do you think you've made a big mistake?
All I want to know if I should let go of you
If you want to hold on to the memories we've shared
You know where to find me
I'm not going anywhere
You mean so much to me

Bridge 1
I know that some things have already changed
But are you willing to work them out
Is the distance too much to handle?

Bridge 2
Things can work between us if you're willing to try
Let me know if you're in it till the end
Do you really want to throw everything away?

Bridge 3
I know that some things have already changed
Let me know if you're in it till the end
Everything seems to be fading away

Chorus
Do you think of me before you sleep?
Am I in your dreams every night?
Do you miss me as each day passes by?
Do you wish that I would return to you?
