Letra:

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream could never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you, hearing your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're seeing
While you're far away and dreaming
Then I kiss your eyes, and thank God we're together
I just wanna be with you
In this moment forever
Forever and ever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream could never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
I just wanna be with you
Right here, right now, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay right here in this moment
For the rest of time
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream could never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream could never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah yeah yeah, uh, there's not too much to say about this one other than I once again did an over-the-top summer movie song and now I'm starting to turn into some weird irony-laden crooner. If I keep this thing up, I'll end like Bryan Ferry, slowly mutating from a bizarre parody of a lounge lizard into the real deal. When you guys find me in Vegas playing to some bar full of people scratching their heads or playing at some rich guy's wedding, please dose me with some smelling salts so that I can figure out where I am and what the hell is going on.

Anyway, recording "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing" is something that proved especially difficult, as I ended up cobbling the thing together whilst briefly staying at my parents' house (oh, those deadlines!) which wouldn't make things so hard except that they went ahead and painted the place and changed all the floors to wood paneling just before I arrived. What this means is that the rooms I recorded in were live as hell and it took a lot of work to hide the extra noise whilst being unable to pad the freshly-painted walls with anything that could possibly dampen the sound. Enjoy the results!

I do not like this recording at all and was high on paint fumes when I recorded it.

But I am glad it at least made people laugh. I think there wasn't enough of a joke to it other than how stupid and dramatic the original is, so I just imitated the dumb inflection Steve Tyler put on it

But honestly I should have either just done it for real or done it way worse

I feel like it ends up weirdly in the middle
I guess that's just how Homestuck is

Everything's WEIRDLY IN THE MIDDLE

"is it serious"
"is it stupid trolling"
"it's homestuck"

I blame my dad for painting while I was staying over at the house

Did the bedroom really need a new coat of paint then and there? Could it not have waited?

Guess I just don't know hospitality.
