  (―`•._ A Wink Of Sleep (―`•._

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

On a night quite dark and rainy
As I was in bed so weary
A voice I heard so scary
Cried aloud so very dreary

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

I could not get a wink of sleep!

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

Outside I heard the thunder
As I snuggled down more under
But a banging made me wonder  
What on earth could be asunder
(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

I could not get a wink of sleep!

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

So with fear I rushed to scurry
To the window I dared to hurry
In the dark in quite a flurry
I at once started to worry

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

I could not get a wink of sleep!

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

A nightmare thought I still sleepy
The strang voice sounded creepy
As the mist crept past so deeply
And the weather grew more bleaky

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

I could not get a wink of sleep!

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

My poor legs began to tremble
My weak knees began to crumble
I feared there would be trouble
Then I took an aweful tumble

(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._(―`•._

So I did not get a wink of sleep!
