Did I mention I love a capella?

I can see you
Don't even know you
Fallin' into the sheets at night
Place my hands flat on my chest
I feel the heartbeat back the night
I've tried counting the sheep
And I talk to the Shepherd
And played with my pillow forever and ever
I sit alone and I watch the clock
I breathe in on the tick
And out on the tock

I can hear your bare feet on the kitchen floor
I don't have to have these dreams no more
And I found someone just to hold me tight
Hold the insomniac all night

I dig my head down deep
So I can't hear the cars
Outside on the street
And the stars are laughin'
They get a kick out of my misery
I've tried everything short of Aristotle
To Dramamine and whiskey bottles
Pray for the day when my ship comes in
And I can sleep the sleep of the just again
