Can't Sleep Song Lyrics
Can't Sleep by Jeff Wayne 4:30 am I'm awake again,
Singing to the dark through open eyes.
While dreaming I see only you and me
Stuck between desire and compromise.
If I said I want you back I'd be a liar
There's nothing left of us to long for any more
But inside the ashes burns an endless fire
And every night I can't help reaching out for more
And I can't sleep, you're so far away from me,
And I can't sleep, and I can't sleep (x2)
You're leaving these scars scattered round my hearth
A road map of the places you have been.
But I can't escape, can't wash this away
When love has burned your mark so deep within
If I said I want you back I'd be a liar
There's nothing left of us to long for any more
But inside the ashes burns an endless fire
And every night I can't help reaching out for more
And I can't sleep, you're so far away from me
And I can't sleep, and I can't sleep. (x6)
