Wide Awake and Smiling

If i had the guts to say i love you
I'd tell you as quickly as i could.
Honestly, don't be so upset about this,
I'd turn the car around if i could.
We all look the same under these bright lights,
but you're shining brighter every day.
You illuminate more than i ever could
and make me want to change my ways.
She said it's not hard to fall in love,
the hardest part is proving that love is what you wanted
and what you'll need for the rest of your life.
so i said,
Wide awake and smiling,
i didn't want us to break i wanted you just to stay
but it's been raining out all night and I'm tired
but still trying to love you
for what it's worth, i still care
She said "I heard about your trip interstate and how much you wish you'd stayed there with the nicer girls because they've got lovely smiles"
I guess my intelligence lacked
when i made a speech about wanting you back.
I slurred the words as if absurdley they weren't meant to be said.
I closed my eyes i took a drink and took you straight to bed
and suddenly i feel nothing but regret,
i made love before falling in it
Wide awake and smiling,
i didn't want us to break i wanted you just to stay
but it's been raining out all night and I'm tired
but still trying to love you
for what it's worth, i still care
You make your move, she questions it.
your only young once you've only got one shot at it
It's kinda cute and funny how we fall in love but never work it out.
I've been up here doing what i can to get down
I've been inside doing what i can to get out
but it's clear that I'm here waiting to be yours, but he's here
Wide awake and smiling,
i didn't want us to break i wanted you just to stay
but it's been raining out all night and I'm tired
but still trying to love you
for what it's worth, i still care
for what it's worth, i still care
for what it's worth...
