Crying In My Sleep

I took a walk around the yard
I dug the flowers till it got too hard
Smoked my first pack of cigarettes today
Then I, I went down, down to Lucy's old cafe
I put a half a case away
Took a sleeping pill and
I tried to watch TV
But you know baby, the leading lady
Looked too much like you for the likes of me
[01:08.00]And I woke up crying in my sleep
[01:15.00]I was talking to your pillow
[01:23.00]And I reached out to touch your hand
[01:30.00]I knocked the phone off the night stand
[01:34.00]And the operator said, " Can I help you please？"
[01:41.00]And I said " No thanks baby,
[01:43.00]tonight there ain't no help for me."
[03:32.00][01:54.00][03:24.00][01:47.00]You see I just had a bad dream
[03:29.00][01:51.00]That's all that's wrong with me
Went out to loosen up the car
Somehow I wound up at the Rainbow Bar
I had a scotch and soda on the run
But didn't get too far
Then I, I ran down, down some friends
I used to know
I dragged them out to see the show
I ran myself a bath and
I tried to read your book
But you know baby,this time it just didn't seem
Worth all the time it look
