I'm not asking for much. I'm not asking for anything. I'm alone, a self, anemic and sometimes I wake up. If I get hold of this hope inside my head we'd understand and let us down. I'm not asking for much. I'm not asking for anything. (I) I won't waste a moment. (I) I won't waste a moment with you. We're alone and self - anemic and sometimes we wake. I'm not asking for much. I'm not asking for anything. (I) I won't waste a moment. (I) I won't waste a moment. I can run, I can run, I can run, I can run. Let me go, I can run, I can run, I can run. Let me go, I can run, I can run, I can run. Let me go, I can run, I can run, I can run. Just cover up your eyes so I can make sense of it all. You're waking me up. Shut your eyes so I can make sense of it all. I can make sense of it all. So I can make sense of it all.
