You can sleep alone tonight lyrics

Back at the same hotel one year ago

I brought her back to this room

There’s not much to say

She came back every day

Twice that one afternoon

It wasn’t just bodies but oh how our bodies

Tangled so effortlessly

There was much laughter

Before and after

And sometimes in between

I wanna call her up say how are you

How’s things are you doing alright

But then a quiet voice it tells me

It’s okay

You can sleep alone tonight

I got my toothbrush set out by the sink

I might just give it a go

Then climb into bed read a page of that novel

Or zone out on some TV show

Don’t think of her shoulders her hips or her smile

That she’s just a cab ride away

She could be married or moved to a new state

Or not want to see your dumb face

Still I could call her up be charming

Say remember you and me… what a delight

But then a quiet voice it tells me

It’s ok

You can sleep alone tonight

I could say the curtain is open

You don’t wanna miss this moonlight

But then a holy voice it tells me

You’re ok

You can sleep alone tonight

You can sleep alone tonight
