Lyrics

Every time I wake up I'm holding out my hand
Strugglin' with my make up who says what makes a man
I'm questioning my innocence I'm wondering where you've gone
Trapped inside my troubled mind where your memory lingers on

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep

This never should've happened but I guess you needed more
You should've left temptation standing at your door
'Cause if God made man and woman then he must've made me too
And filled me up with this special love and I gave it all to you

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep

If I'd have thought for just one minute
Maybe I could believe
But you lied and deceived

How do you sleep
Why did you do it
How can you breathe
You lied to me
You walked right out and blew it
Why did you leave

How do you sleep
When you lied and deceived
Baby how do you sleep
Why did you do it
Why did you leave
How do you sleep
