Post 252: Get to Sleep Tonight (9/29/09)

Get to Sleep Tonight (8/19/09 c, 9/28/09 w)

Another hot night

Feels like it’s 95 inside
But maybe it’s just an illusion
Because it is causing me confusion

As I toss and turn

Looking for the right spot

Staring at the ceiling, trying to overlook the clock
Get to sleep tonight
There was a time I thought I might
But now it seems it’s much too late
And the sun will soon rise on yet another day
Let me, let me
Get to sleep tonight

Trying to shut off my brain

But it keeps brining up her name
Reliving what I thought was true
Trying to forget that I loved you
But it seems it’s all in vain
Now I’m solving equations in my brain

Staring at the ceiling, trying to overlook the clock
Get to sleep tonight
There was a time I thought I might
But now it seems it’s much too late
And the sun will soon rise on yet another day
Let me, let me
Get to sleep tonight

Now the dawn it seemed to break

And the pillow over my face
Won’t block it’s rays
Now I guess there is nothing left to do
Except to get up in a world
Without you

Staring at the ceiling, trying to overlook the clock

Get to sleep tonight
There was a time I thought I might
But now it seems it’s much too late
And the sun will soon rise on yet another day
Let me, let me
Get to sleep tonight
