Crying in My Sleep

I took a walk around the yard Dug the flowers til it got too hard I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today And I watched the children play And then I went down, down to Lucy's old Cafe Put a half a case away I took a sleeping pill and tried to watch TV But you know baby the leading lady looked too much like you for the likes of me And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking to your pillow And I reached out to touch your hand And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said, "May I help you please?" No thanks baby there's nothing you can really do for me I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me I just had a bad dream Went out to loosen up the car Some how I wound up at the rainbow bar I had a scotch and soda on the run But I didn't get too far And then I ran down, down some friends I used to know Dragged them out to see the show I drew myself a bath and I tried to read your book But you know baby this time it just didn't seem quite worth the time it took And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking to your pillow And I reached out to touch your hand And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said, "May I help you please?" No thanks baby there's nothing you can really do for me I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me Crying in my sleep Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her) Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her) Crying in my sleep
