Berikut ini lirik lagu "Sweet Dream" dari Alessia Cara:
[Verse 1]
4:55, everybody else is snoring
My heavy eyes, I can never seem to close 'em
My running?mind,?just can't catch?you when it's going
Is it late?at night or is it early in the mornin'?
[Pre-Chorus]
Only, so many sheep a girl can count
Patchouli candles burnin' out
I try to meditate it all away
But damn, it is too quiet now
Daylight helps distract my head
Monsters hide under my bed
They bother me with all kinds of things like
"Where do I go when I'm dead?"
[Chorus]
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream?
Need a step back from my feelings
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
A sweet dream
For a sweet dream
[Verse 2]
6:58, sun's peakin' through the curtains
I drift away, suddenly the wheels are turnin'
Songs are in my head, scary thoughts begin to worsen
Once I'm wide awake, it's too hard to reverse it
[Pre-Chorus]
Chirpin' birds are flying 'round my house
Patchouli candles burnin' out
I try to meditate it all away
But damn, it is too quiet now
Daylight helps distract my head
Monsters hide under my bed
They bother me with all kinds of things like
That one stupid thing I said
[Chorus]
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream? (Sweet dream)
Need a step back from my feelings (Feelings)
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
A sweet dream
For a sweet dream
A sweet dream
For a sweet dream
[Bridge]
Sandman, can you visit me?
All I want is a sweet dream
[Verse 3]
8:31, I'm slurrin' every word now
I pray this cold coffee helps me with the rebound
How does everybody I know, know how to sleep sound?
When we're all a mess, I guess the only way out is a
[Outro]
A sweet dream (Sweet dream, sweet dream)
Is a sweet dream (Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah)
A sweet dream (Oh yeah, yeah, ayy, ayy)
Is a sweet dream (Yeah, ayy, ayy)
