TOO TIRED TO SLEEP

I'm too tired to sleep my eyes won't close 
Too much on my mind to think about I suppose 
Did I lock up my door and feed the cat 
Switch off my lights and other stuff like that

I look at my alarm clock it's just after two 
Sleep won't come whatever I try to do 
I try counting sheep like the old wives say 
Maybe a word with God to him I'll pray 

Insomnia and sleep deprivation are a bind 
Nothing worse I think you'll find 
I'm sorry if I'm not fresh as a daisy this morning 
Lack of sleep should carry a Government health warning

Well Kieran, you need to try my way,
if you cant sleep,,
but its a secret ,that i have to keep 
You may keep on asking ,
and find it frustrating
 but its my secret and its staying that way
