Counting Sheep

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was almost ten till two You and I had had a fight I hadn't slept a wink since you Rolled over and said goodnight [Pre-Chorus] I've heard it said two people in love Should never go to bed mad But they never said nothin 'bout going to bed Feeling devastated and sad [Chorus] Well, you were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep You said "There's nothing more to say And I'm too tired anyway" You were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep How can you sleep so peacefully While I go over all the things you said to me? While I go over all the things you said to me? [Verse 2] God, I hate it when wе fight Did you mean the things you said? They'rе gonna keep me up all night Echoing inside my head [Pre-Chorus] Ooh, I've heard it said two people in love Should never go to bed mad Well, I'm not mad, baby, but how can I sleep With a heart that's aching this bad? [Chorus] Well, you were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep You said "There's nothing more to say And I'm too tired anyway" You were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep How can you sleep so peacefully After all the things you said? [Bridge] And you're just an inch away But it feels more like a mile I was hoping you would stay Awake for just a little while Honey, we could work it out Or at least give it a try Sick of staring at the walls I wanna stare into your eyes [Chorus] Well, you were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep You said "There's nothing more to say And I'm too tired anyway" You were lying fast asleep While I was still up counting sheep How can you sleep so peacefully While I go over all the things you said to me? [Outro] You were lying fast asleep While I was crying, trying not to make a peep
