In the dim of the streetlight, breaking through the window
A copper tint on my life
Sentenced penance, where is my innocence
Why can't I just forget, hide away in my dreams
A copper tint on my life
Sentenced penance, where is my innocence
Why can't I just forget, hide away in my dreams
What is the night to me if my dreams never come
What is the night to me once the lights go out and I'm all alone
No matter how hard I try, I keep getting promised things will be better
I sit here at this hotel, torn, stained carpet floor, bathroom in the hall
Newspaper walls, my house no longer for sale, I stew in low income hell
What is the night to me if my dreams never come
What is the night to me once the lights go out and I'm all alone
I've heard it sang, dream when you're feeling blue, Sandman take me away
She left for Germany, she cheated and she won
I can't win one damn night of sleep
What is the night to me if my dreams never come
What is the night to me once the lights go out and I'm all alone
What is the night to me if my dreams never come
What is the night to me when I can't sleep
I can't sleep
I just can't sleep
