Well you may dance the night away and laugh among the stars And you may spill the Milky Way and dance among the bars And you may wake the rafters and break the heart of stone But you got to go to sleep alone You're got to go to sleep alone You're got to go to sleep alone And even if you're lying with (2nd Chorus ? ?to?) somebody Still you're got to go to sleep alone Well you may climb the golden stairs when we're past Jacob ?s Ladder And you may put on golden airs and make the rich get sadder You may learn the golden rule and sit on a golden throne But you got to go to sleep alone Chorus Well you may wake up in the night and wonder if you're dreaming And referee the fights between the being and the seeming And when the victor holds your hand up to the great unknown You got to go back to sleep alone Chorus You're got to go to sleep alone You're got to go to sleep alone Even if you're lying with somebody you really love Still you're got to go to sleep alone
