Lyrics

Laughing in My Sleep

Her heart is broken, she said to me I didn't believe it, I was lost at sea The rain has stopped, I wish it well I hope it continues 'til I drop Is it safe now to hear her When she's sad and alone I've been there, I've seen it She showed me where to go She's not listening, she's not giving up She's just saying the first thing she hears I've been there before I've seen much of it grow Likе the Wizard of Oz Can I help it, can I help you Is thеre room for more than two
