 (You're the reason I don't sleep at night)

 

 I just lay here at night

 Toss and I turn

 Loving you so

 How my heart yearns

 You're the reason I don't sleep at night (don't sleep at night)

 

 Walkin' the floor

 Feelin' so blue

 Smoke cigarettes

 Drink coffee too

 Honey, you're the reason I don't sleep at night (don't sleep at night)

 

 I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me

 But if I'm wrong, don't fail to call

 Come over and keep me company (whoa, whoa, whoa)

 

 Sometimes I go for a walk

 Take a look at the moon

 Strum my guitar

 Sing a love tune

 a- honey, you're the reason I don't sleep at night (don't sleep at night)

 

 Walkin' the floor

 Feelin' so blue

 Smoke cigarettes

 Drink coffee too

 Strum my guitar

 Look at the moon

 Losin' sleep over you

 

 I'm bettin' you're not losin' sleep over me

 But if I'm wrong, don't fail to call

 Come over and keep me company (whoa, whoa, whoa)

 

 Sometimes I go for a walk

 Take a look at the moon

 Strum my guitar

 Sing a love tune

 a- honey, you're the reason I don't sleep at night (don't sleep at night)

 

 Walkin' the floor

 Feelin' so blue

 Smoke cigarettes

 Drink coffee too

 Strum my guitar

 Look at the moon

 Losin' sleep over you

 

 You're the reason

 You're the reason

 You're the reason

 I don't sleep at night
