Light Sleepers

[Verse 1]

Light sleepers in the early morning café

Six o'clock at the break of the day

Light sleepers, what did you find in the life you left behind?

Did you lose yourself on the way

Lonely drifters in their own world

What's on your mind, a guy or a girl?

The life you have, the life you'd like?

A Harley Davidson motorbike?

Light sleepers in the early morning café

Watching the sun come up over L.A

Light sleepers lost in their thoughts

Some still in a dream of sorts

Americano, bitter black

Helps the day to start on track

Lonely drifters whose ship has sailed

Business problems, marriage failed

Maybe growing old has caused

The need for space and silent thought

[Verse 2]

Sun comes up behind the trees

Looks like a seventies album sleeve

Aviator glasses hide

The lack of sleep in my red eyes

And though their look may seem forlorn

Like me they want to hear the birds of dawn

Light sleepers, I'm with you

No time to sleep, too much to do

Life slips away with time

I want to make the most of mine

So I'm one of the light sleepers too

I'm one of the light sleepers too

I'm one of the light sleepers too
