Nanci Griffith - Sweet Dreams Will Come lyrics

(John Stewart)

I'm sleepin' less in L.A.

Dreamin' of days yet to come

Oh, and I don't care what you say

I know that those days will surely come

I'm wakin' and I'm callin'

I'm shakin' and I'm fallin'

Oh, little darlin'

I wonder when those sweet dreams will come

There's a hole in the sky

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

Make ya wonder when those sweet dreams will come

Lookin' for some love

I guess that why people buy dogs

Is there someone up above?

And I wonder is the Captain keeping logs

I am cursing and I'm praying

Now knowin' 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 beginning

To feel like those sweet dreams will come

Oh, little darlin'

Don't cha wonder when those sweet dreams will come

(Oh, sweet dreams will come)
