Sleepless In Love

He had hair, black as a fiberglass speedboat

The morning air was crisp as a brand new bank note

He swaggered like a surfer on a Louisiana dirt bike

He swerved like a trucker on the Dallas Turnpike

They were sleepless in love, they were lovers

They were lovers, sleepless in love

She had eyes, bright as a sunlit Air stream

She told no lies, she hardly ever had a bad dream

She was calm, still as a July Willow

She was tender, soft as a K Mart pillow

They were sleepless in love, they were lovers

They were lovers, sleepless in love

He held her close, tight as a Harley's drive chain

Like a rose, riding on a midnight freight train

They shivered, like the streamers in a gypsy car lot

They melted, like a rain on an Irish rooftop

They went crazy, crazy as a the wild wild west wind

When it chases a tumbleweed with too much top-spin

They made love like, wild horses in a hurricane

Chasing rainbows in a souped-up silver seaplane

They were sleepless in love, they were lovers

They were lovers, sleepless in love

They were sleepless in love, they were lovers

They were lovers, sleepless in love
