I've been sleepin' with the lights on
'Cause the darkness is surroundin' you
This is my world, this is my choice
And you're the drug that gets me through
I've been waitin' for an answer
Because I built this bed for two
I'm just hangin' on your answer
I built this bed for me and you
Can't you see that I am yours?
So will you be my life support?
You're my life support
You're my life support
Sick of wakin' up in darkness
When the sky is always painted blue
There's a method to my madness
It's clear that you don't have a clue
I've been waitin' for an answer
Because I built this bed for two
I'm just hangin' on your answer
I built this bed for me and you
Can't you see that I am yours?
So will you be my life support?
You're my life support
You're my life support
You're my life support
You're my life support
Can't you see that I am yours?
So will you be my life support?
I've been sleepin' with the lights on
'Cause the darkness is surroundin' you
