  • Oh, babe

    Never thought I would be like this
    Wide awake waitin' on a goodnight kiss
    Sippin' ninety proof
    Talkin' to the moon
    Coutin' down the hours 'til it's 2 AM
    Never thought I would be like this

    But as long as the night ends with you in a yellow cab
    Shootin' me a text sayin' comin' home soon
    As long as I can bet on you crawlin' into bed
    After slippin' out your high heel shoes
    I ain't lyin' sayin' havin' a good time
    Out with your girls, girl, do what you do
    No matter how late, baby, I'll be stayin' up
    I can't sleep without you

    I'd be tossin' and turnin' all night, babe
    From the smell of your hair on a pillow case
    Even if I tried without you by my side
    I'd be dreamin with my eyes open
    I'd be tossin' and turnin' all night, babe, yeah

    But as long as the night ends with you in a yellow cab
    Shootin' me a text sayin' comin' home soon
    As long as I can bet on you crawlin' into bed
    After slippin' out your high heel shoes
    I ain't lyin sayin havin a good time
    Out with your girls, girl, do what you do
    No matter how late, baby, I'll be stayin' up
    I can't sleep without you, no

    (Ooh ooh)
    I can't sleep without you (ooh ooh)
    No, no (ooh ooh)
    (Ooh ooh)

    I bet that DJ'S playin' your song and your carryin' on
    Baby, I love the thought of it
    Long as I know I'm the one you're comin' home to

    But as long as the night ends with you in a yellow cab
    Shootin' me a text sayin' comin' home soon
    As long as I can bet on you crawlin' into bed after
    Slippin' out your high heel shoes
    I ain't lyin sayin havin a good time
    Out with your girls, girl, do what you do
    No matter how late, baby, I'll be stayin' up
    I can't sleep without you

    Yeah, no matter how late, baby, I'll be stayin up
    I can't sleep without you, no (ooh ooh)
    I can't sleep without you (ooh ooh)
    I can't sleep without you (ooh ooh)

    Never thought I would be like this
    Just wide awake waitin' on a goodnight kiss Writer/s: Brett Young, Justin Ebach, Kelly Archer
