Songs that say "sleep, ing.." in them

[chickapin parterre]

They tell us everything's alright
And we just go along
How can we fall asleep at night
When something's clearly wrong
When we could feed a starving world
With what we throw away
But all we serve are empty words
That always taste the same

Yep, Nickleback....when we stand together.

Sweet Dreams was a great roll down your window cassette . this cool us down for the night.

This City Never Sleeps"

You can hear the sound
Of the underground trains
You know it feels like distant thunder

You know there's so many people
Living in this house
And don't even know their names

I guess it's just a feeling - in the city)

I want to wake up in the city that never Sleeps.

Someone Saved My Life Tonight
- Elton John

I never realized the passing hours
Of evening showers
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams
I'm strangled by your haunted social scene
Just a pawn out-played
by a dominating queen
It's four o'clock in the morning
Damn it! Listen to me good
I'm sleeping with myself tonight
Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive

And someone saved my life tonight
Sugar bear
You almost had your hooks in me
Didn’t you dear?
You nearly had me roped and tied
Altar-bound, hypnotized
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
You're a butterfly
And butterflies are free to fly
Fly away, high away bye bye...

paradise by the dashboard lights....

Stop right there
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now
Before we go any further
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you an answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
I'll give you an answer in the morning

Hard Candy Christmas - Dolly Parton

...Maybe I'll drive so far
That I'll lose track
Me, I'll bounce right back
Maybe I'll sleep real late...

Oberndorf Austria, a flooding river had damaged the organ in the Church, so only a guitar was available and melody was written for a string instrument to perform the first time the song was presented, be it at a Christmas Eve service. This was in the year 1818, at St Nicholas Parrish

I learned of the history from John Denver on a Muppet Christmas special and the song is now the fourth best selling single of all time.
