I took a walk around the yard Dug the flowers til it got too hard I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today And I watched the dogs play
And then I went down, down to Lucy´s old Cafe Put a half a case away I took a sleeping pill and tried to watch TV But you know baby the leading lady looked too much like you for the likes of me
And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking to your pillow And I reached out to touch your hand And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said, "May I help you please?" And I said, No thanks baby there´s nothing you can really do for me I just had a bad dream, that´s all that´s wrong with me I just had a bad dream
Went out to loosen up the car
Some how I wound up at the rainbow bar I had a scotch and soda on the run But I didn´t get too far
And then I ran down, down some friends I used to know Dragged them out to see the show I ran myself a bath and I tried to read your book But you know baby this time it just didn´t seem quite worth the time it took
And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking to your pillow And I reached out to touch your hand And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said, "May I help you please?" And I said, No thanks baby there´s nothing you can really do for me
I just had a bad dream
Crying in my sleep Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find a way) Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find a way) Crying in my sleep
