Lyrics to How Do You Sleep?
You look so peaceful lost in your sleep
No need for your pills or your counting sheep
Lying so pretty in your cotton and your lace
It's a real thing of beauty when you're lying to my face

You'll get caught before you ever want to own up
A fool, you never thought that I would be the grown up

Tell me, how do you sleep, how do you sleep at night
Tell me, where do you keep, where do you keep your secret lies
Down so deep, you never can see, never can see, you just close your eyes
Tell me, how do you sleep at night?

I should have cut and run quick when you said just friends
But you never see it coming, it just hits you in the end
They say once a cheater that you never can change
Shaking your head, don't the truth sound strange

You'll get caught before you ever want to own up
A fool, you never thought that I would be the grown up

Tell me, how do you sleep, how do you sleep at night
Tell me, where do you keep, where do you keep your secret lies
Down so deep, you never can see, never can see, you just close your eyes
Tell me, how do you sleep at night?

A promise on fire gets under your skin
Trust like a bone it just breaks when it bends
Truth out calling from the top of a hill
Just one question haunts me still

Tell me, how do you sleep, how do you sleep at night
Tell me, where do you keep, where do you keep your secret lies

Tell me, how do you sleep, how do you sleep at night
Tell me, where do you keep, where do you keep your secret lies
Down so deep, you never can see, never can see, you just close your eyes
Tell me, how do you sleep at night?
Tell me, how do you sleep at night?
