Crying In My Sleep

Lyrics
I took a walk around the yard I dug the flowers' 'til it got too hard I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today And I watched the dogs play And I went down, down to Lucy's old Café I 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 night stand And the operator said, "May I help you, please?" And I said, "No, thanks, baby, tonight, there'll be no help for me, you see" 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 Somehow I wound up at the rainbow bar I had a scotch and soda on the run But I didn't get too far Then I, I ran down, down some friends I used to know I dragged them out to see the show I read myself a bath and I tried to read your book But you know, baby, this time it just didn't seem worth all 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 night stand And the operator said, "May I help you, please?" And I said, "No, thanks, baby, tonight there'll be no help for me, you see" I just had a bad dream ♪ I woke up crying Crying, trying to find you, baby Crying, trying to find you, baby Crying, trying to find you, baby (crying in my sleep) Crying, trying to find you, baby (crying in my sleep) Crying, trying to find you, baby (crying in my sleep)
