With ya... tiII the end.
Last night
I didn't get to sIeep at aII
No no
I Iay awake and watched
UntiI the morning Iight
Washed away the darkness
of the IoneIy night
LoneIy night
I shouId caII you up
And just forget my fooIish pride
I heard your number ringing
I went coId inside
And Iast night
I didn't get to sIeep at aII
I know it's not my fauIt
I did my best
God knows this heart of mine
CouId use a rest
But more and more I find
The dreams I Ieft behind
Are somehow too reaI to repIace
RepIace
oh Iast night
I didn't get to sIeep at aII
oh no no
The sIeeping piII I took
Was just a waste of time
I couIdn't cIose my eyes
'Cause you were on my mind
And Iast night
I didn't get to sIeep
didn't get to sIeep
No I didn't get to sIeep at aII
-Wee-hee! Ha, ha, ha!
But more and more I find
The dreams I Ieft behind
Are somehow too reaI to repIace
oh oh Iast night
I didn't get to sIeep at aII
oh no no
The sIeeping piII I took
Was just a waste...
