lyrics

late at night the rats all find
a place for them to rest their heads
one of these rats lay in bed
when the thought of a girl
fills his head tonight
he can't sleep

he takes a seat and stares blankly ahead
and his heart begins to sink like lead to his feet
he walks up, she disappears
and flooding back come all the fears
of losing her

he wants
to talk to her but he is scared that
she will
get the wrong impression of what
he is
trying to do, become closer
to her
just wishful thinking on his part

well in reality, she never said much
but in his mind she's cold to the touch
you think she'd be confused as he
but she's never heard a thing

how could he expect her to react
when he doesn't give her one single fact
his attention span's been cut way short
that ship has long since sailed out of port

he tries
to speak but all that comes out of his
mouth is
silly words and stupid jokes that
he tells
to try and get a response out
of her
just wishful thinking on his part

but the wishful thinking just won't get him far
he loves her but that won't get him far
time is running out and he will hate to part
with the wishful thinking on his heart
