Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no I laid, waked and watched until the morning light Washed away the darkness of the lonely night Last night I got to think maybe I should call you up And just forget my foolish pride I heard your number ringing I were cold inside Last night I didn't get to sleep at all I know it's not my fault I did my best God knows this heart of mine could use a rest What more and more I find the dreams I left behind Are somehow too real to replace Last night I didn't get to sleep at all The sleeping pill I took was just a waste of time I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind Last night I didn't get to sleep at all Didn't get to sleep, no I didn't get to sleep at all What more and more I find the dreams I left behind Are somehow too real to replace Last night I didn't get to sleep at all, no, no The sleeping pill I took was just a waste of time I couldn't close my eyes 'cause you were on my mind Last night I didn't get to sleep at all No I didn't get to sleep, didn't get to sleep at all
