Anita Baker - I Can't Sleep lyrics

[Anita Baker - I Can't Sleep lyrics]

When I'm all alone and I hear your voice
There's no other man
Can make me feel the way you do
I can't describe this feeling inside
And I can't sleep at night

Home is where you belong
That's what I tell myself when you're gone
Every night I say a prayer
Hopes that you make it there
Anyone alone like me
I'm certain they'll agree
'Cause, I can't sleep at night
Loneliness is my biggest fear
I wish the feeling would disappear
I can't sleep at night
Coldness is creeping in
I need to feel your warmth again
I can't sleep at night, no

Holding you so very close


That's what I need the most
And it's your job to go around and
Share your gifts from town to town
I hope I'm not misunderstood
The man that treats me so good
But, I can't sleep at night

When I pick up this phone
And I hear your voice
Telling me you can't wait until you're home
I can't describe this feeling inside
And I can't sleep at night 'cause

I need to hold you in my arms
Honey, how can I be strong?
'Cause, I can't sleep at night
I need a love, I need your thrill
I'm sick and tired of taking pills
'Cause, I can't sleep at night help me
Help me

Ooh, holding you so very close
That's what I need the most
I know it's your job to go around
Share your gifts from town to town
Anyone who's alone like me
I'm sure they'll agree
'Cause, I can't sleep at night
Sick of holding my pillow tight

(scatting and ad-libs)
