Another night that I toss and turn.
Another night that my eyes don't close.
Another night I stare into space, hoping that sleep will finally overtake me.
I spend my nights wasting away the hours with music and small talk.
Nothing works to help my eyes shut.
It's been so long since I've had a good night's rest.
How I long for sleep's sweet spell to come over me.
If I could just feel its embrace once more I could be at peace.
But not tonight.
Another night I wait for a desire I may never get.
