Sleep To Dream - Bettye Lavette

Sleep To Dream - Bettye Lavette
Well I tell you how I feel but you don't care
I say tell me the truth but you don't dare
You say love is a hell you cannot bear
I say give me mine back and
Take your lesson there
For all I care
I got my feet on the ground
And I don't sleep to dream
You got your head in the clouds
And you aren't all what you seem
This mind this body and this voice cannot be stifled
By your deviant ways
So don't you come here with that
And got my own hell to raise
I have never been so insulted in all my life
I have to swallow of the seas to wash down
The pride
You one like a fool just to be
At my side
Now you run like an another fool
You running to hide
And I just can't abide
I got my feet on the ground
And I don't go to sleep to dream
You got your head in the clouds
And you aren't all what you seem
This mind this voice this body cannot be stifled
By your deviant ways
So not you come here with that
And got my own hell to raise
Don't you plead your case don't even bother
To explain
Don't even show your face 'cause
It's a crying shame
Just go back to the rock from under which you came
Take your sorrow and everything you should claim
And don't forget the blame
I got my feet on the ground
And I don't go to sleep to dream
You got your head in the clouds
And you aren't all what you seem
This voice this mind this body cannot be stifled
By your deviant ways
I got my own hell to raise
Don't even try it
Don't you come here with that
I got my own hell to raise
You claim that my dreams my body my mind
This voice
I got my own hell to raise
I got my own hell to raise
