Insomniac Blues For Matthew

Toothpick's in my eyelids lying wide awake in bed
Toss-in and turnin like the sea
Moonlight shinin in like headlights in my room
Hypnotized by the strips on my tv

Whoo I'd give anything
For just one goodnight sleep
One goodnight sleep

Counted a hundred different herds of sheep
Poured a bottle off nyquil in my veins
That alarm clock like a time bomb keeps ticking the nite away
And morning weighin heavy on my brain

Whoo I'd do anything
For just one goodnight sleep
One goodnight sleep

Sunrise should find my eyes closed for ever more
Place a red rose across my chest
And carve on my tombstone for all the world to see
Her memory would not let me rest

Whoo I'd give anything
For just one goodnight sleep
Whoo I'd give anything for just one goodnight sleep
One goodnight sleep
