The Smithereens - Behind the Wall of Sleep lyrics

She had hair like Jeannie Shrimpton, back in 1965 She had legs that never ended I was halfway paralyzed She was tall and cool and pretty And she dressed as black as coal If she'd ask me to, I'd murder I would gladly lose my soul [Chorus] Now I lie in bed and think of her Sometimes I even weep Then I dream of her, behind the wall of sleep Well she held a ba** guitar and She was playing in a band And she stood just like Bill Wyman Now I am her biggest fan Now I know I'm one of many who Would like to be your friend And I've got to find a way To let you know I'm not like them [Chorus] Now I lie in bed and think of her Sometimes I even weep Then I dream of her, behind the wall of sleep Got your number from a friend of mine Who lives in your hometown Called you up to have a drink Your roommate said you weren't around Now I know I'm one of many Who would like to be your friend And I've got to find a way to Let you know I'm not like them [Chorus] Now I lie in bed and think of her Sometimes I even weep Then I dream of her, behind the wall of sleep... Behind the wall of sleep, behind the wall of sleep Behind the wall of Sleep
