  • I cannot sleep at night
    That's what the day is for anyway
    And as the clock strikes midnight
    I hear them dancing at the graves
    Singing to my mind
    Killing the pain . . . sleepless nights . . . sleepless nights
    I cannot sleep at night
    That's what the day is for anyway
    And as the clock strikes midnight
    Only they can let us meet
    Even though she's dead now
    I gotta see her again . . . sleepless nights . . . sleepless nights
    I cannot sleep at night
    I will do anything to see missy again
    Then let us make you an eternal deal
    You will attend to the graves
    You'll give us the house back and keep in mind
    That we only come here at night.
    So we made the deal under the starry night and
    Amon belongs to them now . . .
    I feel the dawn coming my way
    And as the sun breaks up the dark
    I can't hear them dance no more
    There's no voices
    Killing the pain . . . pain . . . pain Writer/s: ANDY LA ROCQUE, KIM BENDIX PETERSEN
