Tom Waits Lyrics

"Sleep Tonight" lyrics


You better get some sleep tonight
You better get some sleep tonight
Honey, just warn your friends
You better get some sleep tonight

You always watch the sun go down
The same old shadows crawl over town
Those thoughts of you, it shivers me
The moon grows cold in memory

Baby, you better get some sleep tonight
All you got to do is close your eyes
You better get some sleep tonight

I wish you, baby, all the best
If you turn out like all the rest
This darkness, baby, it's chilling me
Stars stare down in sympathy

Baby, you better get some sleep tonight
All you got to do is close your eyes
Baby, you better get some sleep tonight

You better get some sleep tonight
You better get some sleep tonight
Warn all your friends
You better keep them out of sight
You better get some sleep tonight

They robbed you of your dignity
They even steal your heart from me
It ain't revenge, you understand
Baby, I just want to know who dealt this hand

Baby, ah that's alright
Baby, you better get some sleep tonight
All you got to do is close your eyes
You better get some sleep tonight

You better
You better get some sleep tonight
Baby
