Don't stay away

I was looking at a picture book
When your eyes had caught mine
Darling, I can read that look
I've studied it all night

Simply put, you frighten me
You've gotten to my mind
I'm usually able to be
And feel what I decide

Lord knows I've tried
I've tried

From the chair on your porch
Where I escape sometimes
And play your roommates guitar
And sing a piece of my mind

Cause I'm reckless and I'm stumbling
Talking at all without rhymes
If it's exactly what it seems
You shouldn't run and hide

Chorus:
I'm not convinced with what you said
I can't believe it for a minute
I can't believe I'm still awake
But when I lay down my head
My dreams make me more upset
I guess I'll just stay awake
I'll stay awake

It's commonplace to complicate
What's simple like the breeze
Instead appreciating it
We might as well talk jet streams

Which reminds me, too, that sometime soon
I'm also headed east
You said you wouldn't be off 'til
You saw what this means

What does it mean
Oh, what it means

Last chorus':
I'm not convinced with what you said
I can't believe it for a minute
I can't believe I'm still awake
And if it all makes sense
Why should we forget
I guess that's why I'm awake
I'm still awake

If I convinced you when I said
I would be fine in a minute
You're probably not still awake
But how could you forget
You said you'd find me if I hadn't yet
And that was no mistake

I'm not convinced with what you said
I can't believe it for a minute
I can't believe I'm still awake
And if it all makes sense
Why should we forget
I guess that's why I'm awake
I'm still awake
I'm still awake
I'm still awake
I'm still awake
