I think about it every night and day
It's stuck in the back of my mind and it won't go away
I don't know why or where it's coming from
I try block it away, call it a day
But it keeps coming back and sticks like a knife
And when I think about it, all I wanna do is cry
And Lord, I don't know the reason or why
This thought in my head, it never seems to fade
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
It's coming on, it really bothers me
This thought that won't go away, it's in my feelings, yeah
I need more time to really think it through
What should I really do? I don't have a clue
Between me and you, I'm so confused, oh
And when I think about it, all I wanna do is cry
And Lord, I don't know the reason or why
This thought in my head, it never seems to fade
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
And will I find the answer to this, will I find a way?
Will it be you to hold, hold me through?
And in the midnight hour of the night, will I find some peace?
Or will I still be raided, raided deep? Ooh
And when I think about it, all I wanna do is cry
And Lord, I don't know the reason or why
This thought in my head, it never seems to fade
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
Did I tell you about the raider of my?
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
Did I tell you about the raider of my sleep?
