Well I've been watching you waltz all night Diane
Nobody's found a way behind your defenses
They never notice the zap-gun in your hand
Until you're pointing it and stunning their senses
All night, all night long
You shoot 'em down because you're waiting for somebody good to come on
But you'll sleepin' with the television on
You say you're looking for someone solid here
You can't be bothered with those just for the night boys
You'd better listen, take some kind of chances dear
Tomorrow morning you'll wake up with the white noise
All night long, all night long
You're only standing there 'cause somebody once did somebody wrong
But you'll be sleepin' with the television on
Your eyes are sayin' "Talk to me"
But your attitude is "Don't waste my time"
But you won't hear a word 'cause it just might be the same old line
This isn't easy for me to say Diane
I know you don't need anybody's protection
I really wish I was less of a thinking man
And more a fool who's not afraid of rejection
All night, all night long
I'll just be standin' here 'cause I know I don't have the guts to come on
And I'll be sleepin' with the television on
Your eyes are sayin' "Talk to me"
But my attitude is "Boy, don't waste your time"
But I won't say a word 'cause it might be somebody else's same old line
All night long, all night long
We'll just be standin' here 'cause somebody might do somebody wrong
And we'll be sleepin' with the television on
Sleepin' with the television on
Sleepin' with the television on
Oh sleepin' with the television on
