I Can’t Sleep At Night

I’ve run out of things to do so I can just say ‘hi’ to you,
Perhaps if I had more to say, I’d feel a need to stay
I’m losing my mind over trying to summon the courage to tell you… to tell you

If I can’t sleep at night, I can’t sleep at night because of you
Well I can’t sleep at night, I can’t sleep at night… what should I do?
Because of you

Sitting here and counting sheep isn’t helping me to sleep,
I just want you here, so I can tell you
how I’m losing my mind over trying to summon the courage to tell you… to tell you

That I can’t sleep at night, I can’t sleep at night because of you
I can’t sleep at night, I can’t sleep at night because of you

If you were mine for a day I’d make you never want to let go,
You don’t see the iceberg of me; there’s more to me than you could know

What can I do to scale the wall
I know the things I want to say
But if I do there’s no way back
and I am lost again (repeat with guitar)

(guitar solo)

Sitting here and counting sheep isn’t helping me to sleep,
I just want you here…

That I can’t sleep at night, I can’t sleep at night because of you
You’re beautiful
You’re beautiful



Did You Ever Stop To Think

Did you ever stop to think the water that you drink might have a past,
It might have been the wave that killed a thousand people in the Spring,
It’s been around since long before we walked the Earth,
and now it’s in your glass…

As ice it might have been snow from in the arctic circle,
It could have been in your Mum’s icecream nearly thirty years ago,
It might have carved it’s way through rock in the ice-age,
and now it’s in your glass…

(piano solo)

It might have been the condensation that I breathed when I was five,
A cloud that made a lightning strike while over eastern Asia,
There are so many places that it could have been,
but now it’s in your glass…

Maybe it spent a thousand years at the bottom of the Sea,
It must have spent some of its life in the middle of a tree,
It also must have been in someone elses tea,
Don’t stop to ask…

(glug, glug… aaah)

(piano and fade)
