If I should fail to recognize you   If I can't catch the words you say   It's 'cause my eyes are tired   As I sit and wait for the waking hour   Even though I've tried a voice inside   Says you're deceiving me      Don't tell me you're sorry   Don't tell me your stories   You're under my wing      If I should fall asleep, wake me   If I can't catch my breath, shake me   It's 'cause my eyes are tired   As I sit and wait for the waking hour   Don't you realize it's in your eyes   You're deceiving me      Don't tell me you're sorry   Don't tell me your stories   Don't tell me you're sorry   Don't tell me, let's start again      I've been walking down a crowded avenue   Nobody stares at me, nobody cares who I am      Don't tell me you're sorry   Don't tell me another story   Don't tell me you're waiting   Don't sell me your story      Stay under my wing   Stay under my wing   Stay under my wing   Let's start again      Don't tell me you're sorry   Don't sell me your story
