Cure My Insomnia

Darling, for you all night I have yearned For hours I have simply tossed and turned Watching the clock as 4 AM just ticks on by Just can't get to sleep, God only knows why I know very well at work how tired I will be Now the dawn has woken the wanting in me Good to have you home soon, get back on track Sleep in your arms instead of being an insomniac Thought fond memories of you would help me sleep Nothing seems to work, I've even tried counting sheep With love we share, you'd think sleep would come easy Can't wait your return and for the Insomnia to release me Awake all night thinking of you and staring at the ceiling At work, this afternoon boss will catch me daydreaming Thought sleep would come easy dear with you on my mind But my heart sees it much differently and for you it has pined So my sweetheart, I'll be much happier when you get back Kiss and a hug from you is sure to cure this sorry insomniac May not be able to sleep at the moment but one thing I do know Sleep will come easy when your head's back here on your pillow Know for sure I'll sleep then, darling, no I'll not be mistaken In each others arms we'll doze off after spirited love making Any wonder really that I can't sleep when it's you I'm missing Long to look into your deep blue eyes as your lips I am kissing Likes the depths of the ocean dear, my love for you runs deep Desires for you are even stronger than my much needed sleep With your head laying next to mine I will feel extremely relieved Insomnia will be gone as my eyes close, listening to you breathe
