I Can't Sleep With You

Bill Anderson · Sometimes (w. Mary Lou Turner) [MCA] [1976]

(Mike Kosser - Steve Pippin)



(Both)

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you on my mind

(Bill)

Here I lay in bed tossing and turning

(The fires of love we once knew are still burning)

I'm living with your mem'ry all the time.



(Both)

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you on my mind

(Bill)

I've tried everything I know to help my sleeping

(Mary Lou)

But sleep won't come to eyes that burn from weeping

(Bill)

It's funny 'cause I've never been the crying kind



(Both)

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you on my mind

(Mary Lou)

I have all the empty hours I can stand

Life is nothing to a woman without a love of her sweet man

(Bill)

And it seems like the nights just get longer and longer all the time.



(Both)

'Cause I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you

I can't sleep with you on my mind...
