Crying in My Sleep - Nick Lowe

Last night I saw you on the street

With a beefy hanger on

Slow walking upon your beat

You were made up girl

Choked up by rage and grief

I stole up to you and I drew my steel

One flash brought fast relief

Then I woke up I was crying in my sleep

Crying in my sleep

There are tears on my pillow

Last night I had you on the sand

In the shimmer of a desert glare

Lord knows how you got there

You were dried out girl

I pull a flagon on my hand

For precious water is what you crave now

I tip it into the sand to seep

Then I woke up and I was crying in my sleep

Crying in my sleep

There are tears on my pillow

Crying in my sleep

There are tears on my pillow

Last night on a windy ledge

I saw you standing with your hair streaming down

Strollin' up while you made your pledge

I was too tired girl

I came upon it when the blue lights played

On the faces of them looking on

Someone shouted «jump» I said «leap»

Then I woke up and I was crying in my sleep

Crying in my sleep, crying in my sleep

There are tears on my pillow

Crying in my sleep

There are tears on my pillow
