GO TO SLEEP Lyrics

Artist: Barbra Streisand
Album: On A Clear Day You Can See For

[speaking]

Now that's what I call a man!

(What are you gonna do about Warren?)

That's the first time in my life I felt like the opposite sex.

(What are you gonna do about Warren?)

I wonder if he'll ask me out tomorrow night.

(What are you gonna do about Warren?)

What am I gonna do about Warren? Oh, Warren doesn't care.

(Warren cares!)

Warren cares, but I don't care!

(You have to care because you're engaged to him and you don't have to care about him because how do you know he cares about you? Then what are you gonna do?)

What did you say?

[Sung]

When you know there's someone loving you
And you know there's someone you love too
And they're not the same, what do you do?
Go to sleep, girl! Go to sleep! Go to sleep!
Close your eyes and hide from every care
When you wake up they may not be there
But tell me how can I sleep?
Tell me who could?
When you see your whole life tangled up good
I could drink, I could weep
Oh but how can I sleep?
Go to sleep. Go to sleep.
And when you and someone have a date
(Which you made when you were thinking straight!)
And when you and someone stay out late
(It was bad too...)
Mmm...But I had to!
When they're not the same who gets the gate?
(This is not the way to find a mate!)
Go to sleep, girl! Go to sleep! Go to sleep!
(Go to sleep, girl! Go to sleep! Go to sleep!)
Comes the dawn I may not feel the same
(Comes the dawn he may not know your name!)
In the sunlight who can see a flame?
But tell me how can I sleep, look what I've done!
Mess around with two men
Soon you'll have none
As you sow, so you reap
Which is why I can't sleep, mmm...
Go to sleep,Go to sleep! (Go to sleep!) Go to...
