Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The clock ticks loud in the quiet room,
I'm lying here in the gathering gloom.
Eyes are shut, but my mind's mid-leap,
Chasing thoughts instead of counting sheep.
(Pre-Chorus)
Turn left, turn right, in my bed, I twist,
To the rhythm of a sleepless playlist.
The night's so still, but inside I groove,
To the beat of the sleep I'm trying to prove.
(Chorus)
I'm wide awake, can't shake this feeling,
My restless heart just keeps on beating.
Too tired to move, too wired to dream,
Caught in the dance of the sleepless stream.
(Hook)
Oh-oh, I'm tossing in the midnight heat,
Oh-oh, can't stop thinking 'bout trying to sleep.
Oh-oh, my mind's on an endless creep,
Oh-oh, in the dance, in the dance of the sleepless beat.
(Verse 2)
The shadows play on the bedroom wall,
I'm up then down like a yo-yo's fall.
The silence speaks in a noisy hum,
Whispering tales of the morning to come.
(Bridge)
But I rise, I fall, in the silent scream,
Of a night too loud for a peaceful dream.
I sway, I spin, in a solo sweep,
In the dance, in the dance, can't find my sleep.
(Electronic Lullaby Music)
(Chorus)
I'm wide awake, can't shake this feeling,
My restless heart just keeps on beating.
Too tired to move, too wired to dream,
Caught in the dance of the sleepless stream.
(Hook)
Oh-oh, I'm tossing in the midnight heat,
Oh-oh, can't stop thinking 'bout trying to sleep.
Oh-oh, my mind's on an endless creep,
Oh-oh, in the dance, in the dance of the sleepless beat.
[Electronic Music Fades Out]
(Outro)
As dawn breaks in, I find my feet,
Embrace the day in spite of sleep's defeat.
Tonight again, I'll hit repeat,
In the dance, in the dance of the sleepless beat.
[Calliope Music]
[End]
