You kept me awake last night
Thought about you
'Til broad daylight
If you ask me
It just ain't right
This keepin' me awake at night.
How you expect
A poor guy to last
With nothin'
But a lonesome past
Though you're gone
You're never out of sight
You kept me awake last night.
I was foolin' myself
By goin' to bed
'Cause I saw your face
In the book that I read
I hug my pillow
And whisper sleep tight
But you kept me awake last night.
[Piano - Floyd Cramer] ---
When twilight came
I said goodbye to the sun
Then thought about
All those sweet things you done
And I know the same thing
Will happen tonight
You kept me awake last night...
