Raffi - Sleep Song lyrics

Maybe it's the time of year Summer's still waiting the call Winter's somehow left behind Can't make up its mind And everything you believe in Comes tumbling down Instead of sleeping you'll be staying up all night Lying awake all day Hoping that everything will be alright But your body don't work that way And so you say you're always on the losing Feeling lost in a crowd But you're only when you're by myself Maybe that's just as well 'Cause you can't always count on someone To lend a helping hand Sometimes when I'm get feeling low Wondering why this world would treat me way I think of people and places make me a smile And it don't matter how you hard you try You can't hold the world on your shoulders, no You could say we're all doing our best to get by Only fools could promise you good times But I can only try to put things right So dim the lights, pull the shades Maybe we both could get some sleep tonight
