Try for Sleep - Van Morrison

It’s four o’clock in the morning, and there’s a new full moon

Shining down through the trees

But don’t leave the room now, leave it in doubt

Pretend not to know what I’m talking about

I try, all night long

I try, I want you to come along

I feel it when you touch me, I’m already wet

But how are you supposed to know what you get

Wake me when it’s over, but don’t turn on the light

Call me by name, that’s alright

I try, all night long

Ooh, I try to carry on

And, how can you go through, how can you go through

So many changes

Oh, how can you go through, how can you go through

So many changes

It’s a family affair, it’s a family affair

It’s a family affair, it’s a family affair, it’s a family affair

Try for sleep, why don’t you try for sleep

Why don’t you try for sleep

I’m pushin' the river, ready to roll

Oh, I can feel it in my soul

Give me the high light and leave out the rest

You know what they told me

They said the west is best

I try, all night long, I try to get along with

Will try for sleep, ooh try for sleep

Won’t you, oh won’t you come along, come along

Try for sleep, try for sleep

Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, ya, yaaa

I want you to try for sleep

I know you will try, ooh baby

Ooh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
