Joan

Joan's asleep in my bed

How many times could I wake her instead

Cover my head and drift Joan

Joan's asleep in my bed

How many times could I wake her instead

Cover my head and drift into sleep

To fall prey to some useless dream

Oh I know it's good inside

How could I wake the one that I've lied to

For so long at our best

It's easier to lie and just pretend

Lead her on, leave me alone

I don't want to play these games anymore

These games at all oh no

Lead me on, lead me astray

I don't want to run away

Like a coward and face myself today

Drifting into a haze I see the man that I became

A fearless lover and passionate friend

An ego that haunts but never bends

Oh and I know it's easy to lie

And take away the life of a child

It breaks my bone and then my smile

Until I'm the man that masks his trials

Tell me was it all fake

Could I wake up without a scar on my face

I see futures so real

But darling you ain't the future I dream

Lead her on, leave me alone

I don't want to play these games anymore

These games at all oh no

Lead me on, lead me astray

I don't want to run away

Like a coward and face myself today

Joan's asleep in my bed, how many times could I wake her instead?
