| I took a walk around the yard
|
| Dug the flowers til it got too hard
|
| I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today
|
| And I watched the children play
|
| And then I went down, down to Lucy’s old Cafe
|
| Put a half a case away
|
| I took a sleeping pill and tried to watch TV
|
| But you know baby the leading lady looked too much like you for the likes of me And I woke up crying in my sleep
|
| I was talking to your pillow
|
| And I reached out to touch your hand
|
| And knocked the phone off the nightstand
|
| And the operator said, May I help you please?
|
| No thanks baby there’s nothing you can really do for me I just had a bad dream, that’s all that’s wrong with me I just had a bad dream
|
| Went out to loosen up the car
|
| Some how I wound up at the rainbow bar
|
| I had a scotch and soda on the run
|
| But I didn’t get too far
|
| And then I ran down, down some friends I used to know
|
| Dragged them out to see the show
|
| I drew myself a bath and I tried to read your book
|
| But you know baby this time it just didn’t seem quite worth the time it took
|
| And I woke up crying in my sleep
|
| I was talking to your pillow
|
| And I reached out to touch your hand
|
| And knocked the phone off the nightstand
|
| And the operator said, May I help you please?
|
| No thanks baby there’s nothing you can really do for me I just had a bad dream, that’s all that’s wrong with me I just had a bad dream, that’s all that’s wrong with me Crying in my sleep
|
| Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying)
|
| Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her)
|
| Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying)
|
| Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her)
|
| Crying in my sleep |
