Insomniac Blues For Matthew

Toothpick's in my eyelids, lying wide awake in bed
Tossin' and turnin' like the sea
Moonlight shinin' like headlights in my room
Hypnotized by the strips on my TV

Whoa-ooh (whoa-ooh), I'd give anything
For just (for just) one goodnight sleep
One goodnight sleep

Counted a hundred different herds of sheep
Poured a bottle of NyQuil in my veins
That alarm clock, like a time bomb
Keeps ticking the night away
And morning weighin' heavy on my brain

Whoa-ooh (whoa-ooh), I'd give anything
For just (for just) one goodnight sleep
One goodnight sleep

Sunrise should find my eyes closed forever more
Place a red rose across my chest
And carve on my tombstone for all the world to see
Her memory would not let me rest (rest)

Whoa-ooh (whoa-ooh) I'd give anything
For just (for just) one goodnight sleep
Whoa-ooh (whoa-ooh) I'd give anything
For just (for just) one goodnight sleep

I'd give anyways, one good night sleep
I'd give anyways
