Need to get me some sleep
Before my eyes start to weep
Before exhaustion takes me
And I start drowning in a sleepless sea
Before tiredness
Becomes a wilderness
Before my words
Are misheard
Before my eyes shut
And my body stills and stays put
So to the land where dreams are made
The toll on this road has already been paid
