Fill Me Up

Fill me up fill me up
I'm a long way from home
And I don't have a lot to say
Fill me up fill me up
Cause you're all that I've got
And I traveled a long, long way

Cheer me up cheer me up
Cause I'm all alone
And I'm taking it day by day
Cheer me up cheer me up
Cause you're all that I've got
And I traveled a long, long way

I'm a bellhop now on a busy day
And I'm starting at sunrise
And the color of dawn from this plane that I'm on
Is the day breaking in your eyes

I'm a still life now on a tabletop
I'm a case study in french blue
And it's clear to me now that the whole of my life
I've been making my way to you

And I know where you live
And I know who you are
So don't get too close
And don't go too far

Well I might be alright
If I just see the light
I don't care if the phone don't ring
And I'll know when it's right like a voice in the night
And the right shade of tangerine

Fill me up fill me up
I'm a long way from home
And I don't have a lot to say
Cheer me up cheer me up
Cause you're all that I've got
And I traveled a long long way

And I know where you live
And I know who you are
So don't get too close
And don't go too far
Don't get too close
And promise me that you'll never go too far
Never go too far

And I don't have a lot to say

Cause you're all that I've got
And I traveled a long long way.
