You better get some sleep tonight
Honey, just warn your friends
You better get some sleep tonightThey say you watch the sun go down
The same old shadows crawl over town
Those thoughts of you, it shivers me
The moon grows cold in memory, babyYou better get some sleep tonight
All you've got to do is close your eyes
You better get some sleep tonightI wish you, baby, all the best
If you turn out like all the rest
This darkness, baby, it's chilling me
Stars stare down in sympathy, baby, yeahYou better get some sleep tonight
Warn all your friends
You better get them out of sight
You better get some sleep tonightWell they robbed you of your dignity
They even steal your heart from me
It ain't revenge, you understand
Baby I just want to know who dealt this hand, babyOh I'm sorry
Get it up, get it upAll you got to do is close your eyes
You better get some sleep tonight
You better get them out of sight
