i can't sleep Songtext
von Peter McPoland

Remember when you scraped your knees?
Crying, "Momma hold me once more, please"
And out she′d run and she'd dry your eyes
Saying, "It′s okay baby now rockabye"

Oh, sing to me again
Oh mom, I'm tired and I can't sleep
Oh, sing to me again
Oh mom, I′m tired and I can′t sleep

You miss the songs in your dad's old car
The first time you heard it and watched the stars
When the nights were cold and your light up shoes would
Stomp on the pavement and twinkle blue


Read to me again
Oh, dad, I′m tired and I can't sleep
Oh, read to me again
Oh, dad, I′m tired and I can't sleep

Thank you, thank you
You′re welcome, waited a long time for that
Happy birthday, Peter
Thanks
Aw, look at that love

Remember when the pictures aged
When the clock kept ticking and the band kept playing
Now the nights are cold and I dry my eyes
I sing, "It's okay baby, rockabye"

Well, read to me again
Oh, dad, I'm tired and I can′t sleep
Well, sing to me again
Oh, mom, I′m tired and I can't sleep
