Album Version	Live "The Gusters" Version
Woke up today To everything gray And all that I saw Just kept going on and on Sweep all the pieces under the bed Close all the curtains and cover my head And what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised love Are you? If this serenade (Repeat after me . . . just a little bit closer) Is not what you want (And what do I say . . . caught up in a lie) It just how it is (It won't change a thing . . . got a little bit colder) It keeps going on and on Come out come out wherever you are Would you do it all over Right from the start? And what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised love Are you? And what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised love Are you? Once had this dream Crashed down in Oz Not black and white But where the colors are I never dreamed that I could let it go And I will get What I deserve Sweep all the secrets Under the bed Open the curtains Forget what I said And what you wish for Could come true You act surprised, love Are you?	Woke up today To everything gray And all that I saw Just kept going on and on Sweep all the pieces under the bed Close all the curtains and cover my head And what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised love Are you? If this serenade (Repeat after me . . . just a little bit closer) Is not what you want (And what do I say . . . caught up in a lie) It just how it is (It won't change a thing . . . got a little bit colder) It keeps going on and on Come out come out wherever you are Would you do it all over Right from the start? And what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised love Are you? Once had this dream Crashed down in Oz Not black or white But where the colors are I never dreamed that I would let it go And I will get What I deserve Sweep all the secrets Under the bed Open the curtains Forget what I said And what you wish for Could come true You act surprised, love Are you? So what you wish for Won't come true You aren't surprised, love Are you?
