Half Asleep Paroles

Old friends and strangers
They treat me like a little girl
But not you dear, you are always here

Back in the black and white, the spotlight
And I smoked a packed house
And you were sitting pretty then
Just like you're doing now

I was something then
Or so they say
I coulda gone all the way
Like everything else
I did it half way

Half asleep
That's were the dreams and demons meet
Say, stop the laughter, dim the roar
This clown's not funny anymore My heart out for a drunken crowd
That didn't mean a thing
We were so in love, oh, I loved you so
That it seemed like an hour ago

And when I'm down and out
I try to figure out
What was it all about
What was it?
What do we do now
I don't want to take another breath

No keep talking, I'm still here
Don't let them take you away my dear
