Lyric The Curse
(Dwight Yoakam)
Don t you sleep.
Don t you have a single moment s peace
Just walk through the darkness with fears that are deep
And don t you even sleep
Don t you smile.
Don t you have happy thoughts for a while
Til teardrops and sadness both go out of style
No, don t you even smile
Chorus:
These are the things I wish for you
Deep in my heart how I hope they come true
And then you ll know when bad turns to worse
What it s like to live under love s curse
Chorus:
These are the things I wish for you
Deep in my heart how I hope they come true
And then you ll know when bad turns to worse
What it s like to live under love s curse
Don t you try
To have a single thought that goes by
Without being haunted by memories like mine
No, don t you even try
Don t you sleep.
Don t you have a single moment s peace
Just walk through the darkness with fears that are deep
And don t you even sleep
Don t you smile.
Don t you have happy thoughts for a while
Til teardrops and sadness both go out of style
No, don t you even smile
Chorus:
These are the things I wish for you
Deep in my heart how I hope they come true
And then you ll know when bad turns to worse
What it s like to live under love s curse
Chorus:
These are the things I wish for you
Deep in my heart how I hope they come true
And then you ll know when bad turns to worse
What it s like to live under love s curse
Don t you try
To have a single thought that goes by
Without being haunted by memories like mine
No, don t you even try
