I couldn't sleep a wink last
night
Because we had that silly fight
I thought my heart would break
the whole night through
I knew that you'd be sorry, and
I'm sorry, too
I didn't have my favorite dream
The one in which I hold you tight
I had to call you up this
morning
To see if everything was still
all right
Yes, I had to call you up this
morning
'cause I couldn't sleep a wink
last night
<I couldn't sleep a wink last
night>
<Because we had that silly
fight>
<I thought my heart would
break the whole night through>
<I knew that you'd be sorry,
and I'm sorry, too>
I didn't have my favorite dream
The one in which I hold you
tight
I had to call you up this
morning
To see if everything was still
all right
Yes, I had to call you up this
morning
'cause I couldn't sleep a wink
last night
