"Everything But Sleep"

My room has a big white bed
Pictures on the mirrors
Books that last a year
Everything but sleep
Don't you know

Nothing won't fit under there
The Dowmaker's ghost
A heavenly host
Everything but sleep
Don't you know
Everything but sleep
Where does it go
Everything but sleep
On it goes

If it weren't for you
I could be anywhere
I'd rather be here
Don't you know

Now that I know I'll never feel the same way
Everything but sleep
Don't you know
Everything but sleep
On it goes
On it goes
