Here I am, wide awake You're so many miles away There you are Eyes close tight behind your door
There's this thing, gravity, Yeah, it keeps me on my feet Oh, how I wish I could let it go, And leave the floor
[chorus] And I go all out And I can't take it any longer Cause I have my doubts That I won't make it very far And you have my heart Somewhere in california So I'll go to where you are
I've got a plan To be your man But it's hiding beneath the floorboards And it's time to make its way into the light
So can't you see It's up to me To point it in the right direction And let it take immediate action As it swiftly springs to life
[chorus]
I know the future isn't far From flashing lights and passing cars Oh, in due time the universe And planet earth will be ours
When you are far away And I need to be put at ease I just look underneath the floorboards And not debris Because there's hope in my heart And there's light in the darkest places I can smile and say "goodbye" to gravity
