The big clock on the wall shows way past two and I'm still waiting up for you

It's plain to see that you're not coming home so now I lay me down to sleep alone

My arms ache to hold you like old times how I long to feel your lips on mine

Without you and your love I've been dyin' for so long

So now I lay me down to sleep alone

[ steel ]

While I search my mind for just one sign of hope tonight

You're out somewhere holding someone else so tight

I know I've been a fool for hanging on so now I lay me down to sleep alone

My arms ache to hold you...

Now I lay me down to sleep alone
