Lyrics I Can't Sleep - Steve Goodman

I Can't Sleep

Last night I stayed up late to watch the sunrise
It afforded a wonderful view
Count the sheep 'til I cry
Count the times you said goodbye
And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you
There’s no need to think you’d remember
A love like some forgotten I.O.U
I’ve been watchin' the dawn
Every night since you’re gone
And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you
Oh babe
I’m so lonely
Now I’m wonderin' what I’m gonna do
All of my life I’ve been dreamin' a sweet dream
How was I to know that dream was you
Last night I stayed up late to watch the sunrise
And I’ll stay up late tomorrow night, too
Count the sheep 'til I cry
Count the times you said goodbye
And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you
Oh babe
I’m so lonely
Now I’m wonderin' what I’m gonna do
You don’t have to wake me when it’s over
Now I know I can’t get over you
Last night I stayed up late to watch the sunrise
And I’ll stay up late tomorrow night, too
Hear that early bird call
Ain’t it hard when you fall
And I can’t sleep when I can’t sleep with you
