"Sleep Song" lyrics - RAFFI

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
