I Lay In My Bed

I lay in my bed, I can't sleep
I'm counting sheep and losing sleep

The phone rings, I hear the tone
I let it ring, there's no one home

I sit in my car and stare and stare
I don't turn the key, I don't get nowhere

The mail is lying on the desk
more comes each day, I lay it with the rest
