Crying In My Sleep Lyrics

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 dogs 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?"
And I said, ?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 ran 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?"
And I said, ?No thanks baby there's nothing you can really do for me
I just had a bad dream?

Crying in my sleep
Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying)
Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find a way)
Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying)
Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find a way)
Crying in my sleep
