RESTLESS NIGHTS






~~ RESTLESS NIGHTS ~~






All night long all I do is dream
Those dreams they rule my mind supreme,
It`s four or five dreams every night
Right thru` until the morning light.

            

When the sun peeps thru` at day break
I`m always glad to be awake,
Them dreams they make me toss and turn
Some even make my stomach churn.

           

In my sleep I can laugh or cry
Even talk and shout, live or die,
They seem so real so very vivid
Some dreams leave me feeling livid.

            

At night when I lay down to sleep
All I try and do is count sheep,
So where these thoughts come from I don`t know
When I have nightmares I wish they`d go.



Happy and sad dreams, good and bad
Night after night they drive me mad,
They predict my mood for the day
I just wish they would go away.

           

They follow me round the whole day
I can`t shake them try tho` I may,
I know they`re only make believe
But my mind they just will not leave.

            

Just to have one night with no dreams
Aahhh!  But impossible it seems,
So tonight as I turn out the light
I`ll face yet another restless night.
