ROY ORBISON
"Afraid To Sleep"
(Jack Adkins / Buddy Buie / William Gilmore)

The night is still the wind is chilled
I hear the rain falling on my window pane

Can't close my eyes, afraid to sleep
'Cause when I do I would only dream of you

I'm trying to forget that we ever met
But how can I forget and dream of you?

Afraid to sleep because I'd dream of you
Afraid to sleep because I'd wake up feeling blue
If I stay awake forever,we'd never be together
So I'll close my eyes and go ahead and dream

Sweet dreams
Sweet dreams
Sweer dreams...
