Crying in My Sleep

Art Garfunkel

Transposer:

-- I took a walk around the yard Dug the flowers 'til it got too hard Smoked my first pack of cigarettes today Then I I went down down to Lucy's old Cafe Put a half a case away Took a sleeping pill and I tried to watch TV But you know baby the leading lady Looked too much like you for the likes of me  And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking    to your pillow  And I reached out to touch your hand  And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said ("May I help you please?") And I said "No thanks baby tonight there is no help for me I just had a bad dream that's all that's wrong with me See I just had a bad dream"         Went out to loosen up the car Somehow I wound up at the rainbow bar I had a scotch and soda on the run But I didn't get too far The I then I ran down down some friends I used to know I dragged them out to see the show I ran myself a bath and I tried to read your book But you know baby this time It just didn't seem quite worth all the time it took And I woke up crying in my sleep I was talking    to your pillow  And I reached out to touch your hand  And knocked the phone off the nightstand And the operator said ("May I help you please?") And I said "No thanks baby tonight there is no help for me You see I just had a bad bad dream that's all that's wrong with me See I just had a bad dream      You know I just had a bad dream"         Outro: (repeat & fade) I woke up crying___     You know I just had a bad dream Crying in my sleep You know I just had a bad dream

La chanson évoque la douleur d'un cœur brisé, où le narrateur se promène dans sa solitude, cherchant des distractions qui ne font qu'accentuer son chagrin. Après une tentative de se changer les idées, il finit par se retrouver face à la réalité de son manque, se réveillant au milieu de la nuit en pleurant dans son sommeil, parlant même à un oreiller comme s'il s'agissait de la personne qu'il a perdue. Dans ce récit, les souvenirs d'une relation amoureuse consumée sont omniprésents. Les soirées alcoolisées dans des lieux familiers et les rêves troublés traduisent la lutte contre la solitude et la peine, tout en soulignant l'impact persistant de l'absence de l'autre. C'est un véritable voyage à travers la mélancolie, où chaque moment souligne à quel point il est difficile d'échapper à l'ombre de son passé.
