Lyrics

Sleepy Song

Tell me

I can't think right

Am I going home tonight

Or staying here?

Turn over

Turn out the light

I'm going home tonight

Not staying here

If you let me sleep

I won't wake up

I haven't closed my eyes for days

Sleep

I won't wake up

I haven't closed my eyes

Tell me

I can't think right

I'm going home tonight

Not staying here

Turn over

Turn out the light

I'm going home tonight

Not staying here

If you let me sleep

I won't wake up

I haven't closed my eyes for days

Sleep

I won't wake up

I haven't closed my eyes
