Sleepless In Love - Joe Ely

He had hair… black as a fiberglass speedboat

The morning air… was crisp as a brand new bank note

He swaggered… like a surfer on a Louisiana dirtbike

He swerved… like a trucker on the Dallas Turnpike

They were SLEEPLESS IN LOVE, they were Lovers

They were lovers, SLEEPLESS IN LOVE

She had eyes, bright as a sunlit Airstream

She told no lies, she hardly ever had a bad dream

She was calm… still as a July Willow

She was tender… soft as a K Mart Pillow

They were SLEEPLESS IN LOVE, they were Lovers

They were lovers, SLEEPLESS IN LOVE

He held her close, tight as a Harley’s drive chain

Like a rose, riding on a midnight freight train

They shivered, like the streamers in a gypsy car lot

They melted, like rain on an Irish rooftop

They went crazy, crazy as a the wild wild west wind

When it chases a tumbleweed with too much top-spin

They made love like, wild horses in a hurricane

Chasing rainbows in a souped-up silver seaplane!

Repeat Chorus twice
