Island Girl
in a lonely sprawl
i stare at the ceiling
'cause i can not fall
asleep tonight
no not at all
head lights flash
across my bedroom wall
crying eyes open
'cause i can not fall
in love with you
no not at all
walk away and taste the pain
come again some other day
aren't you glad you weren't afraid
funny how the price gets paid
walk away and taste the pain
come again some other day
aren't you glad you weren't afraid
funny how the price gets paid
busted in two
like a brittle stick
i can not drink
because
Sleeping To Dream
I’m dreaming of sleeping next to you
I’m feeling like a lost little boy in a brand new town
I’m counting my sheep and
each one that passes is anotherdream to ashes and they all fall down.
As I lay me down tonight,
I close my eyes and what a beautiful sight
I’m sleeping to dream about you
I’m so tired of having to live without you
But I don't mind
I’m sleeping to dream about you and I’m so tired
I found myself in the riches your eyes, your lips, your hair
Well you were everywhere
But I woke up in the ditches. I hit the light and I thought you might be here
but you were nowhere. You were nowhere at home.
As I lay me back to sleep
Lord I pray that I can keep
Sleeping to dream about you
I’m so tired of having to live without you
But I don't mind
I’m sleeping to dream about you and I’m so tired
It’s just a little a lullaby to keep myself from crying myself to sleep at night
Sleeping to dream about you
I’m so tired of having to live without you
But I don't mind
Sleeping to dream about you and I’m so tired
