I worked myself to the bone Tired as a man can get It's the only way that i know Might help me to forget I lay me down And i pray my soul to keep Now it's two a.m. and i should be Sleeping like a log But i can't blame the poundin' rain Or the neighbor's barkin' dog It's what you do to me This heartache never sleeps Yeah twenty four hours of every day I can feel it down in my chest From the moment you walked away Well i ain't got no rest It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e This heartache never sleeps Well like a ghost that haunts me Down at the end of my bed Your memory, it taunts me And it won't stay out of my head Till you come back It ain't never gonna leave So i might as well get out of this bed And put the coffee on Girl you know i'm not alone At the breakin' of the dawn 'cause just like me This heartache never sleeps Yeah twenty four hours of every day I can feel it down in my chest From the moment you walked away Well i ain't got no rest It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e This heartache never sleeps It won't let me be-eee-eeee-e This heartache never sleeps It won't let me be It won't let me be This heartache never sleeps
