sleepin' tight

 

Well he went west to find his fortune

She went east to find a thrill

He laid drunk beside the ocean

and she laid down with a bottle of pills

When he woke up the sky was fallin'

And she woke up in a dirty hotel

He bummed a dime from an old beach cleaner

And she thanked a stranger for paying her well

Silent night holy night

Three thousand miles and the bow burned bright

Love so wrong love so right

All you lovers out there

I hope you're sleepin' tight

 

Well he called a friend in San Francisco

And she took a train to Baltimore

He put a hole in his arm that evening

And she put a fist through her mother's door

Well he told himself that he cared for no-one

And she told her mama to leave her alone

He turned blue as he started talkin'

And she picked up the telephone

Silent night holy night

Three thousand miles and the flame burned bright

Love so wrong love so right

All you lovers out there...

I hope you're sleepin' tight

 

There was a plane from San Francisco

And there was a plane from Baltimore

Routine flights from two big cities

flown a thousand times before

I turned on my television

It seems there was a crash somewhere

Two planes comin' across the country

have collided in the air

Sileny night holy night

Three thousdand miles and the fire burns bright

Love so wrong love so right

All you lovers out there...

I hope you're sleepin' tight

All you lovers out there...

I hope you're sleepin' tight
