Lyrics I'm Not Sleeping - Counting Crows

I'm Not Sleeping

She comes to me at night when I’m sleeping
She comes to me when I’m alone
She comes to me, she holds my hand when I’m crying
She comes to me, she shuts my eyes
She brings me home
But I’m not sleeping anymore, anymore
No, I’m not sleeping anymore, anymore
She tells me when you look at me, she tells me when you’re lying
She tells me when you talk about me and she lays me on the floor
She tells me when you’re whispering, she lies beside me naked
She tells me when you laugh at me and she locks all the doors
But I’m not sleeping anymore, anymore
No, I’m not sleeping anymore, oh, anymore
All alone again
But I’ve been through all this shit before
Spend my nights in self defense
Cry about my innocence
But I ain’t all that innocent anymore, more, more, more
I see her on the TV, I see her in the movies
I see her in these animals that dance beside my bed
I’ll follow you down baby, down into this valley
Yeah, I’ll follow you down baby, but I won’t come up again
But I’m not sleeping anymore, anymore
No, I’m not sleeping anymore, anymore
No, I’m not sleeping, I’m not sleeping
I’m not sleeping, no no no no no no no no
I’m not sleeping, I’m not sleeping
Anymore, anymore, anymore, anymore
I said, «Rain, rain go away, come again some other day»
'Cause I got all this shit to say but I’ve gone back to find my way
My sister’s mother’s favorite son lost among the chosen ones
But I’ve got news for everyone 'cause I’ve gone out that door
