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 Not 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)
