The Hot Club Of Cowtown — Sleep lyrics

Lyrics

Oh, sleep
Mmm, sweet sleep
Why won’t you come find me
Must you always remind me
Of all the things I’ve left undone
Dark out, mmm mmm
Lights out
My mind should be dimming
But I thrash like I’m swimming
Elusive sleep, why won’t you come
Trouble plagues me
Through the night
Keep me up 'til morning light
Like a bully trying to pick a fight
And there’s just nowhere to run
Daybreak, mmm mmm
Mind ache
I just started dreaming
And the clock’s already screaming
Another weary day begun
Oh, sleep
Mmm, dear sleep
Deliver me from sorrow
How will I make it through tomorrow
Normal life, I’ve been the night
Dark out, mmm mmm
Lights out
And there’s no use pretending
These restless nights are never ending
The wheels are coming off this ride
