I Can't Sleep

from Face The Sun by Willie Wisely

/

lyrics

Sleep is all I need
It should come naturally
I’m lost when I’m awake

I’ll toss this way and that
Stare at where you slept
And think of bitter sweet

I can’t sleep
Knowing I’ll never sleep beside you
I can’t dream
No ‘Cause my dream’s to live my life around you
There’s no peace, no, no peace for me

Sun down fills up with dread
A pill to fix my head
I’m carrying that weight

I can’t sleep
Knowing I’ll never sleep beside you
I can’t dream
No ‘Cause my dream’s to live my life around you
For me there’ll be no peace, no, no peace for me

Sleep

Then suddenly a footfall, on a floorboard
In a staircase, post haste, no!
You leaving without saying goodbye
No goodbye, no good, then why’d
You gave me your love
You gave me love
You showed me your love

I wish I could sleep
Knowing I’ll never sleep beside you
I’ll never dream
No ‘Cause my dream is to live my life around you
For me there’ll be no peace, no, no peace for me

My head may never rest
Till I feel your caress
And you whisper sweetly sleep

about

Willie Wisely Saint Paul, Minnesota

Equal parts Minnesotan music scene veteran and Laurel Canyon resident/devotee, Willie Wisely remains that rare bird mixing profound power pop with arena-sized showmanship, a troubadour on an all night rave up, a cold kombucha on a hot California day, a McCartney-ite taking a break from his Japanese import of “Ram” for a quick Canyon run listening to João Gilberto. ... more
