Lyrics
Limbo (2005) It’s hard to get a good night’s sleep in limbo With your heart a thousand miles just to my right You told me you were done, that I should just go Now I’m achin’ for the breakin’ of the light I didn’t see it comin’, maybe I should’ve If I’d have known just what to change I would’ve Now we’ll watch the hands on the clock Please, Mr. Landlord, get my new place ready right around the block So I can pack up my guitars and shoes and then go ‘Cause it’s too damn hard to get a good night’s sleep in limbo I shouldn’t be daydreaming at midnight Relivin’ lovin’ days now long gone No matter anymore who did wrong and who did right Just a few more weeks and I’ll be movin’ on I didn’t see it comin’, I must have been blind Going on faith in what we once had… but never mind Lookin’ down the tunnel I thought I saw the light of day How was I to know it was a locomotive headed my way? Now this smile upon my face just doesn’t fit right ‘Cause I shouldn’t be daydreaming at midnight Yes, I’ll pack up my guitars and shoes and shirts and then go ‘Cause it’s too damn hard to sleep… I’m daydreamin’ ‘bout fallin’ in deep… It’s hard to get a good night’s sleep in limbo
