Oh you just can't sleep
Cos you're too damn tired
But the dreams still come
The dreams still come
Oh the late night sounds
Of the city and the town
The traffic in the distance
The dreams still come
Oh to toss and turn
In a heat that burns
Your eyes won't shut
But the dreams still come
And the stars all blink
To the rhythm of the night
Through the music of the spheres
The dreams still come
Oh the clock still ticks
But time stands still
No rest for the wicked
But the dreams still come
All the sheep you count
To infinity and on
Eyes wide open
The dreams still come
You can rock yourself
Till the sandman shows
It will soon be tomorrow
But the dreams still come
Will you ever drift off
To the land of nod
Never close your eyes
But the dreams still come
