I’m Watching My Heart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I can't be your guardian angel I can barely watch over myself You're wasting your dreams and your wishes on me When they should be for somebody else [Chorus] They should be for someone Who'd do more than listen I'm holding your hand But I'm out at arms length I'm keeping my distance I'm hearing you tell me your story You're telling your story I'm watching my heart [Verse 2] There's a streetlight that shines in your window As you sleep unaware through the night I could sit here and watch you for hours and hours You're holding your pillow your face in the light [Chorus] A fine time to whisper I lovе you You can't hear me I'm holding your hand But I'm out at arms length I'm keeping my distancе I'm hearing you tell me your story You're telling your story I'm watching my heart [Bridge] Every lullaby that I've ever heard Been somebody lying trying to get me to sleep Now I'm old and I'm restless ain't nobody singing And there's no guarantee I'd listen if they did [Verse 3] I'm kissing your face in the morning I'm handing your towel to you through the door I'm doing the breakfast dishes I'm wearing your robe, it don't fit, we're laughing [Chorus] I'm driving this daydream I'm halfway to Jersey I'm holding your hand But I'm out at arms length I'm keeping my distance I'm hearing you tell me your story You're telling your story I'm watching my heart
