The Deep and Dreamless Sleep

Now the phone's stopped ringing round the clock
They've forgotten me
And I realize that it's dumb to try
So I let them be

I can't make out words on the page
I get confused by all the rage
La-di-da-di-da-di-da-di, I'm slipping into

The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The pill for all my pain
The cure for all my grief
The deep and dreamless sleep

Now the sun goes down and the flurries fall
On my lonely home
I can watch a play, read some Hemingway
But I probably won't

I can't recall last Saturday
It's hard to hear what people say
La-di-da-di-da-di-da-di, I'm slipping into

The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The pill for all my pain
The cure for all my grief
The deep and dreamless sleep (deep and dreamless sleep)
(Deep and dreamless sleep)

I remember you well
How you love the holidays
How you wrapped up the toys
And you left them on display
I remember our kiss
Underneath the mistletoe
How it all slipped away
And we had to let you go, aah

The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
The pill for all my pain
The cure for all my grief
The deep and dreamless sleep
The deep and dreamless sleep
Ooh, ooh

Fall into the deep and dreamless sleep

(Deep and dreamless sleep)
(Deep and dreamless sleep)
(Deep and dreamless sleep)
