Sleepin¡¯ Alone

Sleepin¡¯ Alone
This song was first released on the some days are diamonds album. it is the only album it appears on.
For someone who¡¯s got everything, life can still be rough
if things are what you¡¯re lookin¡¯ for, there¡¯s never quite enough
and all the tea in china won¡¯t make a house a home
you can be a millionaire and still be sleepin¡¯ alone
There might be some one night stands to ease the pain inside
or someone you can call around if you¡¯ve lost all your pride
please don¡¯t be mistaken. i don¡¯t mean to put that down
i know there¡¯s times when anything is better than sleepin¡¯ alone
Sleepin¡¯ alone can make a bottle just about your dearest friend
sleepin¡¯ alone can make you swear to god this night will never end
You know it¡¯s not company you are lookin¡¯ for
you know it¡¯s not just pleasure, you know it¡¯s somethin¡¯ more
you know it¡¯s not the answer if it¡¯s not like comin¡¯ home
if the one who¡¯s there doesn¡¯t really care, it¡¯s worse than sleepin¡¯ alone
Sleepin¡¯ alone can make a bottle just about your dearest friend
sleepin¡¯ alone can make you swear to god this night will never end
For someone who¡¯s got everything, life can still be rough
if things are what you¡¯re lookin¡¯ for, there¡¯s never quite enough
and all the gold that glitters won¡¯t make a house a home
you can be a millionaire and still be sleepin¡¯ alone
you might be a millionaire and still be sleepin¡¯ alone
