America Crying In My Sleep Lyrics

Crying In My Sleep Lyrics

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 children 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?" 

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 drew 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?" 

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, that's all that's wrong with me 



Crying in my sleep


Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) 

Crying in my sleep (Crying
trying to find her) 

Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) 

Crying in
my sleep (Crying trying to find her) 

Crying in my sleep
