[Verse 1]
So where do I begin? I woke up today
And dragged this broken suitcase through the rain
I've been searching for the inspiration
I've lost along the way
And you said before I left
"James, don't you drink yourself to death"
Well my darling, I'm afraid
I can't keep that promise, or even try my best
So while you sleep alone tonight
I'll be up 'til the morning light
So for now things will be all right
[Verse 2]
Another place that felt like home
For these past seven months
Is nothing but a number on a door
And a street that felt familiar once
And I've got this great ability
To ruin everything that's good for me
And I swear I won't be satisfied 'til everything goes wrong
('Til everything goes wrong)
[Chorus]
While you sleep alone tonight
I'll be up 'til the morning light
So for now things will be all right
Cause I know soon there'll be a day
When these glazed eyes will fade away
Cause the truth is I'm not okay
[Bridge]
I will start again, and I will retrace every step
And I'll start again, start again
[Chorus]
[Outro]
So while you sleep alone tonight
While you sleep alone tonight
Will you sleep alone tonight?
I'll be up 'til the morning light, tonight
