I Can't Sleep At Night

(albüm: Keke Palmer - 2012)

Why's it always gotta be this way?
I'm seeing shadows on the things you say
We'll never make it on, saying we'll change
Same stories acted differently
I give up, and I won't lie
I sit here looking at the time
Didn't want you to leave, but you had to go
Too bad the pain doesn't follow

Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye
Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye

I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I ain't right
I can't, I can't sleep at night
It don't matter who's right, just want you by my side, oh
And I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I not right
'Cause when it's all over, you're what my heart's beating for

What's the fight, if we never break through?
What's trust, if we never be true?
Wonder if you'll ever feel like I do
Do you toss and turn thinking of me too?
'Cause I give up, and I won't lie
I sit here looking at the time
Didn't want you to leave, but you had to go
Too bad the pain doesn't follow

Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye
Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye

I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I ain't right
I can't, I can't sleep at night
It don't matter who's right, just want you by my side, oh
And I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I not right
'Cause when it's all over, you're what my heart's beating for

Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye
Ah-la-ooh-la-ee-da-ooh-la-oh-la-ooh-aye

I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I ain't right
I can't, I can't sleep at night
It don't matter who's right, just want you by my side, oh
And I can't sleep at night knowing that you and I not right
'Cause when it's all over, you're what my heart's beating for
