ARI HEST - Sleep Tonight lyrics

rate me

Do you really believe you can get to me?<br />

Knocking on my door incessantly<br />

You know you don't owe an apology<br />

<br />

You're just looking for a way to make it right<br />

A pill to swallow and we fade to white<br />

But I haven't got the appetite<br />

And baby don't ask me why<br />

<br />

I'm going to sleep tonight<br />

'Cause I don't know what to do<br />

I'm going to sleep tonight<br />

I don't have the strength for you<br />

And if it's a war you'd like, <br />

You're wasting your time<br />

I'm going to sleep tonight<br />

<br />

In the bedroom there's a fading photograph<br />

Of you and I back when we could laugh<br />

Somehow we wound up on a different path<br />

<br />

On the stereo is a song we know<br />

She's singing the words and a whistle blows<br />

Is this really the way love's supposed to go?<br />

Nobody seems to know<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

<br />

Love don't feel like it used to<br />

And I don't want to get used to knowing it this way<br />

Baby you know that I want you<br />

But I don't wanna keep pleading with you to stay<br />

<br />

Chorus
