GOLDEN EARRING lyrics - I Can't Sleep Without You

(G. Kooymans/B. Hay)



Silver like a fish slappin' on my tongue

Speak to me the way you do

Hide me all summer in your arms

Hold me the way I like you to

You fill my cup 'till it's crackin' up

The button that says alarm

Says me I'm not supposed to

Be like a champ that's going down

Fighting to get close to you

Everybody gets up, excited by love

The sight of the ring, the sight of the blood



I can't sleep without you [4x]



Referee's in black and he's in shock

The judge is hammering for some solid proof

My heart keeps racing like a clock, yeah

I can't sleep without you

It's like a time bomb, ready to go off

In my head and in my heart

The lights keep fading in the dark

Just like a nightmare that's comin' true

I can't sleep without you

I'm crazy in the city, it just ain't fair

You send me to my corner, and you're never there



I can't sleep without you

I can't...............
