Lyrics Richard Marx

Richard Marx

I Get No Sleep

Got a house full of fortune and they pay me in gold

For something I'd do for free

But there's still something missing that a man can't hold

It's like a weight over me

So scared the thrill will be gone

But I'm the one who keeps the pressure on

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone

Well, I'm sick of walking 'round with blood in my eyes

Just keeping up with this town

I'm a roadrunner racing, but I don't see the signs

I've got to learn to slow down

My life makes it hard to complain

But there's time I'd take my school days back again

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone

Ohh yeah yeah

Four o'clock and I'm still counting sheep

Love to change the system, but I'm in too deep

I keep the pressure far away as I can

But it still comes back again, back again, yeah, yeah

My life makes it hard to complain

But there's time I'd take my school days back again

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I'm tired to the bone

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I know I'm not alone

All I've got is all I need

But I get no sleep and I'm sure I'm not alone

All I've got is all I need

I'm not alone, yeah, yeah, yeah
