You've been having trouble sleeping
Real bad thoughts lead to real bad dreams
Toss and turn, the sand man's creeping
Tear the sheets at the seams

You've been fighting wars in your head
How do you fight things you can't see?
Well your general called and said
"you're not a soldier babe and you never will be"

So put down your gun and get back into bed
The battle is over, at least for just one night
I can't fight with you, those are steps I can't tread
But I'll be here when you get back, "sleep tight"
