lyrics

There’s a boy who sleeps beneath the stars
Still believes that heaven’s not as far
As the father who will drink himself to sleep
Or the whispers of a life he’ll never see

But the stars don’t shine the way they did when I looked up to you
And the more I figure out some things the less I have a clue

The best I know is a little short of honesty
And still one drink from leaving and going home
And everywhere I go there are neon signs and pick up lines
Still I’m doing things the best way that I know

There’s a guy who sleeps with all the girls
Breaking hearts and promising the world
But no one knows the secret that he keeps
The longing to be the boy he use to be

Still I’m older than my father was when he first said “I do”
And the more I figure out some things the less I have a clue

There’s a man who spends his nights alone
‘Cause this empty bar has always felt like home
And he tells his wife and kid that he can change
But he knows whose blood is running through his veins

But for all my wayward tendencies I’m trying to be true
To the boy who sleeps beneath the stars who doesn’t have a clue
