Lyrics for Song: Sweet Dreams Will Come
Lyrics for Album: Little Love Affairs [2009]
I'm sleepin' less in L.A.
Dreamin' of days yet to come
I don't care what you say
I know that those days will surely come
And I'm wakin' and I'm callin'
I'm shakin' and I'm fallin'
And oh, little darlin'
I wonder when those sweet dreams will come
There's a hole in the sky
That was made by my right guard last night
Oh, and then there's you and I
Assuring that everything's alright
We are nursing, pretending
Cursing then defending
And yet it's never ending
Makes ya' wonder when those sweet dreams will come
I am lookin' for some love
I guess that's why people buy dogs
Is there someone up above?
And I wonder is the captain keeping logs
I am cursing and I'm praying
Not knowing what we're saying
And yet, it's everydaying
And I wonder when those sweet dreams will come
I feel like a fire
In the morning when the fire is out
I am walking on the wire
And the wire's what the whole thing is about
The pretender is thinning
Surrender is winning
And yet, it's a beginning
To feel like those sweet dreams will come
The pretender is thinning
Surrender is winning
And yet, it's a beginning
To feel like those sweet dreams will come
And oh, little darlin'
Don't ya wonder when those sweet dreams will come
Oh, sweet dreams will come
Oh, sweet dreams will come
Oh, sweet dreams will come
Oh, sweet dreams will come
Oh, sweet dreams will come
