Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all around you
Are counting out the days
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all your kingdom
Is crumbling away
And when you're sleeping
Does guilt come creeping
Shaping your precious dreams
And will the dawn find you lying awake
Coming apart at the seams
[Chorus:]
Judgement day
Judgement day
Is on its way
Judgement day
How do you get through the day
When all around you people are complaining
They have had enough
How do you get through the day
When all around you ministers are saying
They have had enough
And when you're sleeping
Are all those voices
Invading your precious dreams
Or is your slumber the sleep of the dead
Sustained by your righteous belief
[Chorus]
There are those whom great art moves to tears
A touching picture for all to see
But when they're faced by a cry in the street
They will not admit what they've heard
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all around you
Are counting out the days
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all your kingdom
Is crumbling away
[Chorus]
Every time I'm turning on the news
Always someone giving me the blues
Lady, can you tell me that you really care
For in your wake there's anger and despair
If you start believing what you say
Reality will soon be far away
Lady, can you tell me that you really care
You leave a trail of anger and despair
She's a legend
She's a legend in her mind
She's a legend
A living legend in her mind
She's a legend
She's a legend in her mind
She's a legend
A living legend in her mind
Tell me how you sleep when all around you
Are counting out the days
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all your kingdom
Is crumbling away
And when you're sleeping
Does guilt come creeping
Shaping your precious dreams
And will the dawn find you lying awake
Coming apart at the seams
[Chorus:]
Judgement day
Judgement day
Is on its way
Judgement day
How do you get through the day
When all around you people are complaining
They have had enough
How do you get through the day
When all around you ministers are saying
They have had enough
And when you're sleeping
Are all those voices
Invading your precious dreams
Or is your slumber the sleep of the dead
Sustained by your righteous belief
[Chorus]
There are those whom great art moves to tears
A touching picture for all to see
But when they're faced by a cry in the street
They will not admit what they've heard
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all around you
Are counting out the days
Tell me how you sleep at night
Tell me how you sleep when all your kingdom
Is crumbling away
[Chorus]
Every time I'm turning on the news
Always someone giving me the blues
Lady, can you tell me that you really care
For in your wake there's anger and despair
If you start believing what you say
Reality will soon be far away
Lady, can you tell me that you really care
You leave a trail of anger and despair
She's a legend
She's a legend in her mind
She's a legend
A living legend in her mind
She's a legend
She's a legend in her mind
She's a legend
A living legend in her mind
