Sweet Dreams Come Easily
Lyrics by Cory Smith, music by Eurythmics (Sweet Dreams)
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
This is how it works for me
This is how it works for me
I prop my elbows on my knees
I prop my elbows on my knees
Pretty soon I’m dreaming of something
Pretty soon I’m dreaming of something
Sometimes I try to fight it
Sometimes I try to fight it
Sometimes my head jerks back and forth
Sometimes my head jerks back and forth
I think “I’ll rest my eyelids”
I think “I’ll rest my eyelids”
One time I woke up on the floor
One time I woke up on the floor
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
Even the bishop will agree
Even the bishop will agree
From where he sits, he can plainly see
From where he sits, he can plainly see
Everybody’s little siestas
Everybody’s little siestas
Hold your head up,
Hold your head up,
keep your head up, nodding off
keep your head up, nodding off
Hold your head up, nodding off,
Hold your head up, nodding off,
keep your head up, nodding off
keep your head up, nodding off
Hold your head up, nodding off,
Hold your head up, nodding off,
keep your head up, nodding off
keep your head up, nodding off
Hold your head up, nodding off,
Hold your head up, nodding off,
keep your head up
keep your head up
Sometimes I even drool
Sometimes I even drool
I have that problem when I snooze
I have that problem when I snooze
Would I look like a fool?
Would I look like a fool?
If I laid my head on the pews?
If I laid my head on the pews?
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
One quick nap turns into three
One quick nap turns into three
We’ve all felt the urge to some degree
We’ve all felt the urge to some degree
Inadvertent acts of slumber
Inadvertent acts of slumber
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
I close my eye's while “listening”
I close my eye's while “listening”
I even doze while people sing
I even doze while people sing
Chapel’s empty, I am still snoring
Chapel’s empty, I am still snoring
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
I’m just a victim, don’t you see?
I’m just a victim, don’t you see?
My mind tunes things out, and that’s the key
My mind tunes things out, and that’s the key
It’s compulsive hibernation
It’s compulsive hibernation
Sweet dreams come easily
Sweet dreams come easily
This is how it works for me
This is how it works for me
I prop my elbows on my knees
I prop my elbows on my knees
Pretty soon I’m dreaming of something!
Pretty soon I’m dreaming of something!
