Lost Dog Street Band - Sleeping Tight lyrics

If I had one wish oh, I would sleeping tight
Rest my weary eyelids and drift
Off in the night
But I’m still contemplating and in
Comes the morning light
I choke on my breath as clouds go rolling by

In my dreams oh, your face it is quite clear
I held you so close were did you disappear?

Yonder comes my baby she’s
Prayin’ for a smile
She sees the hurt i’m in and
The devil in my eyes
She knows i’m dreading but hoping for a sign
A long lost friend would save
Me from my nightmares tonight
I kept on walking and refused every ride
Said i’m searching for a ghost have
You seen him pass by?

Somewhere I’m pickin’ daisies oh I’m
Laughin’ like a child
Far from misfortune and a
Worn out tortured mind
Maybe someday I’ll see you on
A lonely drunken train ride
You could pick a melody and
I’ll just close my eyes

Life is hell and God can’t
Put you through it twice
Dreams are in between but
I ain’t sleepin’ tonight
