The Chain Gang of 1974 - I Think We Need To Sleep

Down on the ground
You and me
Spilling my heart out
But there is no sound

Other than what you believe
What did I do wrong?
Was it that one song?
Maybe it's nothing
I pray it's something
Because then it's not a waste of time
We have gone up and down this street
With the red wine that stains your teeth
Going nowhere, why can't you see?
There's just one thing
I want to say to you
Will you listen? I hope you do
Can it wait 'till the morning view?
I think we need to sleep
I think we need to sleep

It's for the best, turn away
Go where the dreams are
I know we're not far
Feeling the guilt taking shape
Heartburn and heat waves
I think I'm afraid
May I confess that this night's a mess
And the drugs aren't working right this time?

We have gone up and down this street
With the red wine that stains your teeth
Going nowhere, why can't you see?
There's just one thing
I want to say to you
Will you listen? I hope you do
Can it wait 'till the morning view?
I think we need to sleep
I think we need to sleep
I think we need to sleep
We have gone up and down this street
With the red wine that stains your teeth
Going nowhere, why can't you see?
I think we need to sleep
