Lyrics The Go-Go's

The Go-Go's

You Can't Walk in Your Sleep (If You Can't Sleep)

Last night you slept, you slept in fits

You smashed your windows bit by bit

You cried out - a bad dream

Horror pictures - what a scene!

Which way will things go tonight

Toss and turn or sleep tight

You can't win you wonder why

That sleep is one thing you can't buy

You can't walk in your sleep

If you can't sleep

You can't walk in your sleep

If you can't sleep

Downed that pill hours ago

And time is passing oh so slow

Watch the clock - you're waiting

It's five o'clock and the world is waking

That's the way things went tonight

Tossed and turned though you were tight

Exhaustion brings on desperation

Well there's still some consolation
