Let Me Sleep

Please let me sleep
I want to sleep
Make it so I might sleep

I want to dream
Please let me dream
Let me drift off and dream

I want to drool
Please let me drool
Let me wake up on a drool-soaked pillow

I want to wrap myself up
I want to snuggle down
I want to keep myself warm
A chance for my head on the pillow
A chance to find the right spot
A chance to finally switch off

And then, wake up

I want sore eyes
A creaky back
A breath that could kill sailors
I want to yawn
I want to scratch
I want an early morning hunger

I just want to sleep
I’d give anything to sleep
Please just let me sleep

And finally, wake up
