A Message From Dada

Sitting in the hospital channeling my inner dr. suess i wrote this for seth while he was napping:
                                                      
i cannot sleep during the day
i cannot sleep at all i say
i cannot sleep in dark of night ...
i cannot sleep under stars so bright
i cannot sleep on pillows soft
i cannot sleep up on a loft
i cannot sleep on bails of hay
i cannot sleep at all i say

I've tried it lying in a bed
I've tried it standing on my head
I've tried it in a parking car
I've tried sitting at the bar
I've tried it in a hotel room
I've tried it laying in a tomb
i cannot sleep out by the bay
i cannot sleep at all i say
ive tried it with the TV on
I've tried laying in the lawn
I've tried it with a radio
I've tried laying in the snow
I've tried it in a sleeping bag
I've tried it saluting the flag
i cannot sleep in any way
i cannot sleep at all i say
bed of roses, bed of nails
flip a coin heads or tails
a wooden slab, a water bed
nothing seems to clear my head
counting sheep, or sounds that soothe
on sheets of silk oh so smooth
for just a wink any price id pay
i cannot sleep at all i say
i cannot sleep thinking of you
and all the pain youre going through
i want to take it all away
hold you tightly every day
i will not rest i vow to you
til the pain is gone I LOVE YOU
