Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sun is going down, time is running out
No one else around but me
Steady losing light, steady losing my mind
Moving shadows and grinding teeth
[PreChorus]
Without you, there ain't no place for me to hide
Without you, there's no way I can sleep tonight
What I'd do for a little bit of peace and quiet
Without you, I keep
[Chorus]
Slippin' into bad dreams
Where there's no you and I
No sound when I cry
I love you, and I need you to set me free
From all of these bad dreams
Waitin' on the other side
No sound when I cry
I love you, and I need you to set me free
From all of these, all of these
[Refrain]
Ooh
Bad dreams
Ooh
All of these
[Verse 2]
Baby, please come around, help me settle down
Hellish habits can cloud my head
What you waiting for? Something physical?
I can't do this by myself
[PreChorus]
Without you, there ain't no place for me to hide
Without you, there's no way I can sleep tonight
What I'd do for a little bit of peace and quiet
Without you, I keep
[Chorus]
Slipping into bad dreams
Where there's no you and I
No sound when I cry
I love you, and I need you to set me free
From all of these bad dreams
Waitin' on the other side
No sound when I cry
I love you, and I need you to set me free
From all of these, all of these
[Outro]
Ooh
Bad dreams
Baby, please
Ooh
All of these
All of these
