lyrics

Light Sleeper

Two long days since I fell into shadow
Now you've got a new girl and you moved to Colorado
Hot on your trail is a dumb gum shoe
So if you know what's good for you
You better learn to sing the blues

I'm gonna darken your dreams I'm gonna call on the reaper
Cause I can't rest until you up and leave her
I toss and turn and my love for you still burns
So here's a lesson that you wish you would have learned

I'm a light sleeper

Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper

I never was who you want me to be
But now six feet deep, I'll be a faded memory
I Always tried to make you happy
When I prayed for peace you'd rather slap me

Wake me, wake me

Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper

I'm a light sleeper

Light sleeper, light sleeper, Mr. Gravedigger
I'm a light sleeper, so dig down deeper and deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper

On my way to get you babe
So when you get the chills you're getting what you gave
Grave secrets don't work like that
So when I pull you down you're never coming back

Cause I'm a promise keeper

Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper­
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper
Gravedigger better dig a little deeper
Shouldn't have messed with a light sleeper

I'm a light sleeper...
