Art Garfunkel

Crying in my sleep

I took a walk around the yard,
I dug the flowers till it got too hard
Smoked mu first pack o'cigarettes today.
Then I,
I went down down,
Down to Lucy's old cafe.
I put a half a case away.
Took a sleeping pill and I tried to watcht TV.
But You know, baby, the leading lady
looked too much like you for the likes of me.

Chorus
And I woke up Cryin'in My Sleep.
I was talkin' to your pillow.
And I reached out to touch your hand
I knocked the phone off the night stand
and the operator said:
"Can I help You please?"
And I said:
"No thanks, baby, tonight there ain't no help for me.You see I just had a bad dream."
That's all that's wrong with me
You see I had a bad dream.

Went out to loosen up the car
Somehow I wound up the Rainbow Bar
I had a scotch'n soda on the run
But I didn't get too far.
Than I ran down,
down some friends I used to know
I dragged them out to see the show
I ran 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 I took

Chorus
And I woke up cryin'in My Sleep
