The Curse Lyrics

The Curse lyrics

(Dwight Yoakam)

 

 Don't you sleep. 

 Don't you have a single moment's peace

 Just walk through the darkness with fears that are deep

 And don't you even sleep

 

 Don't you smile. 

 Don't you have happy thoughts for a while

 'Til teardrops and sadness both go out of style

 No, don't you even smile

 

 Chorus:

 These are the things I wish for you

 Deep in my heart how I hope they come true

 

 And then you'll know when bad turns to worse

 What it's like to live under love's curse

 

 Chorus:

 These are the things I wish for you

 Deep in my heart how I hope they come true

 

 And then you'll know when bad turns to worse

 What it's like to live under love's curse

 

 Don't you try

 To have a single thought that goes by

 Without being haunted by memories like mine

 No, don't you even try
