This song is running over and over again in my head.
It really has become a kind of anthem for me, and I plan on asking Bic Runga to let me include the words to her song in my book.
If you get a chance, buy a copy of her brilliant album “Beautiful Collision” from iTunes; that album has “Get Some Sleep” on it.
Now, I’m off to get some sleep myself. I got a whopping 9 hours last night, but tonight I have only gotten about 2&1/2 hours so far. Not good.
Snooze ya later! Dyane
“”Get Some Sleep” by Bic Runga
From here to there to everywhere and back to Union Square
When do I get some sleep?
Anywhere the sleep dust lies – it decorates your eyes
When will I get some sleep?
Stranded in June, whistling the same old tune
But I do believe I might be having fun
I believe I might be having fun
Impeccably dressed in your second-hand vest, we were waiting for the taxi to come
Putting on my daytime eyes
A good-enough disguise, until I get some sleep
Reading out the horoscopes, and using up our jokes
Where do we get some sleep?
Stand on the moon, find the light of my living room
Yes I do believe I might be having fun
I believe I might having fun
Tune into the station, make a dedication
This is going out to everyone
This is going out to everyone
Something in the phrasing was quietly amazing
We were waiting for the chorus to come
This is going out to everyone
This is going out to everyone
From here to there to everywhere and back to Union Square
When do I get some sleep?
Anywhere the sleep dust lies, it decorates your eyes
When will I get some sleep?
Stranded in June, whistling the same old tune
But I do believe I might be having fun
I believe I might be having fun
Tune into the station, make a dedication
This is going out to everyone
This is going out to everyone
This is going out to everyone
Going out to everyone
