Sleeping States

I listen to you talk about your whistling band
 Ride your bikes to bad racket, climb the ladder and up
 On the roof we're passing pipes like we're good old friends
 But I know what I want
 And I can't help feeling it
 Turn toward the lake and talk of jumping in
 Instead we sit back and imagine
 The romance of water on our naked skin
 And the first wet steps
 And I can't help feeling it
 Slate blue eyes
 No one ever tries
 To win me over
 So thanks, even though it's just
 A little taste
 Slate blue skies
 No one ever tries
 To stay up later than they want to
 Even though it's heaven
 Slipping into sleeping states
 I listen as you try to take my breath away
 But it's not what you do, it's what you don't say
 If I never look over, you could never not stay
 When the sun comes up
 We'll have someone to blame
 Slate blue eyes (Listen when you care)
 No one ever tries (About them)
 To win me over
 So thanks, even though it's just (Listen, when you love)
 A little taste (Them)
 Slate blue skies (Listen, when you care)
 No one ever tries (About them)
 To stay up later than they want to
 Even though it's heaven
 Slipping into sleeping states
 Fight it now if you have to
 I understand your mistakes
 Pretty soon it'll all blow over and
 I'll go back to where I came from
 Slate blue eyes (Listen, when you care)
 No one ever tries (About them)
 To win me over
 So thanks, even though it's just (Listen, when you love)
 A little taste (Them)
 Slate blue skies (Listen, when you care)
 No one ever tries (About them)
 To stay up later than they want to
 Even though it's heaven
 Slipping into sleeping states
