[Verse 1]
I took a walk through Central Park
The trees were sleeping in the sun
I saw the couples lying on the gra**
But you were not with me
I pa**ed a wedding by the lake
There was a bagpiper piping
There were three too many bridesmaids
But you were not with me
[Hook]
I want things back the way they were (x2)
I want to rock, I want to rock this baby to sleep
(Sleep), to sleep (sleep)
[Verse 2]
There are twelve hours in a day
But over fifty in a night
I live inside this hot and restless brain
When you are not with me
[Hook]
(Sleep, sleep)
[Outro] (x4)
If I can't have what I want
Dear god, let me want what I have
Let me want what I have, let me want what I have
