Sleep Tonight
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you really believe you can get to me?
Knocking on my door incessantly
You know you don't owe an apology
You're just looking for a way to make it right
A pill to swallow and we fade to white
But I haven't got the appetite
And baby don't ask me why
I'm going to sleep tonight
'Cause I don't know what to do
I'm going to sleep tonight
I don't have the strength for you
And if it's a war you'd like,
You're wasting your time
I'm going to sleep tonight
In the bedroom there's a fading photograph
Of you and I back when we could laugh
Somehow we wound up on a different path
On the stereo is a song we know
She's singing the words and a whistle blows
Is this really the way love's supposed to go?
Nobody seems to know
Chorus
Love don't feel like it used to
And I don't want to get used to knowing it this way
Baby you know that I want you
But I don't wanna keep pleading with you to stay, stay,stay,stay...
Stay..
whoooooooooooooooooooooooa
Chorus
