This is about a woman who just couldn’t fall asleep Being awake is not my soul to keep I just want a good night’s sleep It won’t happen tonight I am counting sheep upon sheep night after night Awake in pure darkness without the light Everyone in the house falls asleep but me Eating in the middle of the night is out Because I can’t sleep I just want to shout Those that can’t sleep also know what I am talking about Countless hours looking around the room Clock ticking, but the next day no way coming soon Please eyes just drop so I can fall asleep Just give me that snooze control in sleep The night seems to be extra long My desperation for sleep is almost gone There won’t be a wake up morning in yond The walls and ceiling I will have to constantly to look upon.
