I couldn't sleep last night
I was not sleepy
I guess I must have been dreaming
I sailed a ship out at sea
Came a mysterious girl
And she was carrying this letter
She said "You must drink this
It'll make you feel much better"
She said "It's good, isn't it?"
I said "Oh my, yes it is"
The moment her back was turned
I vanished
I put the light on
It makes my blood run cold
Well I rather need a rest
Or else I'm just getting old
Well she was looking at me
I lit a cigarette
Then came a moment
Well I never could forget
I fell into the water
Kicked my legs and I swam
I tried to figure out
How I'd gotten into this jam
Put the light on
I said I couldn't sleep at all
Well I was watching the shadows
And they were dancing up and down the wall
I put the light on
ย
Well she came back into the cabin
And she did what she had to do
She left a note pinned to the door
Told me when she was through
Well my head it was spinning
I had a dizzy feeling in my head
Well I was hot and I was shaking
Yes I fell down onto the bed
Well exactly what happened
I tell you I still do not know
But I got right out of there
While there's still time to go
Put the light on
I said I couldn't sleep at all
Well I was watching the shadows
And they were dancing up and down the wall
I put the light on
I put the light on
I put the light on
