Joe Jung: Music

There's no snow on the ground but that hardly matters There are plates in the sink and a buzz in the light My pockets are torn and my shoe toes are tattered And I don't want to go to sleep tonight New Years is coming to ring in tomorrow There's a row up in Harlem and to there I must fly The wine rack is full of 80 proof sorrows And I don't want to go to sleep tonight I don't want to go to sleep How all the years have gone How all the time has past Family and friends flow by Like shadows on glass Broken shadows all My lovely, I miss you, my heart is on fire You captured my mind with a flash of your smile My home is so desperate without you around That I don't want to sleep when you're not in town So I flip through the channels and turn off the sound 'Cause no news is new news at this breaking hour The war hasn't ended and the models still cry And I don't want to go to sleep tonight. I don't want to go to sleep.
