Don’t Need to Sleep Songtext
von John Legend

I′ve been lower than low down
Only way is up right now
I can see a new dawning
Oh-oh-oh
So far from home
Oh-oh-oh
Been running so long

But tonight
I don't need to close my eyes
I don′t need to fall asleep
I don't need to sleep to dream, no, I don't
Bent but not broken
Down but not hopeless
Eyes are wide open, I know it
Don′t need to sleep to dream


I won′t let 'em feed me lines
I won′t let 'em fake my lie
I won′t let 'em write my story
No, oh-oh-oh
These words are my own
Oh-oh-oh-oh
But I′m not alone
I'm not alone

But tonight
I don't need to close my eyes
I don′t need to fall asleep
I don′t need to sleep to dream, no, I don't
Bent but not broken
Down but not hopeless
Eyes are wide open, I know it
I don′t need to sleep to dream

Tonight (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Oh (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Yeah (oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)
Night

Bent but not broken
Down but not hopeless
Eyes are wide open, I know it
I don't need to sleep to dream
I′ve been lower than low down
Only way is up right now
I can see a new dawning
