A Reason To Stay Up All Night

Adam prayed one night, He said, “Lord, I like this place

I like being other than mud and I enjoy having a face

I like the beasts of the land and the fruit of the trees

And though I don’t quite understand, I like the birds and the bees

But I think I’d like, I think I’d like...

Chorus:

If I had someone to talk to

Some home to walk to

Someone to impress and delight

Somebody to tease

Somebody to please

A reason to stay up all night

Yeah, that’s what I’d like, that’s what I’d like...

Galileo prayed one night, he said, “Lord, I like this place

It’s too bad it took being exiled to get me my personal space

I love knowing the spheres of the earth and the moon

Four hundred years before anyone else has a clue

But I think I’d like, I think I’d like...

Chorus

I prayed one night, I said, “Lord, I like this place

I’m so glad the modern world figured out that people just get in the way

Every day I look older but no one is near enough to know

Though I admit, as the days grow colder my vanity’s the first thing to go

But I think I’d like, I think I’d like...

Chorus
