The Longest Day Of The Year

Jason Mraz

5

I couldn't sleep last night

I laid awake

and wished you were here

I wished that I had more time

to make more mistakes

to make them louder

and clearer

I couldn't sleep last night

finding it quite inviting

I just couldn't sleep last night

not a light was on

as I held this song in mind

of you

and what you do to me

I can follow the room

I close my eyes

it didn't move

if I was only stronger

I wish that I were stronger here

referring through the heartsongs dear*

cuz this day is the longest of the year

cuz I didn't sleep last night

not for a lack of trying

I just didn't sleep last night

by the light of day may my dreams be waking

time...in due time

I won't rest my thoughts of you

could I be more lucky than I've grown to be

just knowing that I know her

why shouldn't I show her

the wiser getting older

could she be more perfect in perfection her

reflection is casting ?

and that's the last thing

I'll be ever asking

I couldn't sleep last night

just couldn't get it right

I couldn't sleep last night

this is the longest day of the year
