Lyric

The moon is whispering through the window pane

The stars pull back the curtains of the night in vain

The clock keeps running, racing on the wall

But my heart won't settle down at all

Rolling 'round beneath the sheets, I try to hide

But my thoughts are soaring on a restless ride

Drowsiness is drifting somewhere far away

The land of dreams is closed to me today

I gotta get some sleep, but I’m wide awake

Closing my eyes, but it's more than I can take

Your smiling face is floating in my head

Wishing I could forget 'til the morning sun is spread

(Wide awake tonight...)

Listening to the silence of this empty room

Sighing at the clock as it spells out my doom

Counting every sheep is just a waste of time

Searching for a magic sleep, a rhythmic rhyme

I didn't even touch a cup of coffee's heat

But my heart is skipping to a frantic beat

Fighting all alone through this long, dark night

My lack of sleep is growing out of sight

I gotta get some sleep, but I’m wide awake

Closing my eyes, but it's more than I can take

Your smiling face is floating in my head

Wishing I could forget 'til the morning sun is spread

One sheep... two sheep

Still seeing you

(Why am I so awake?)

Morning's coming soon
