When You Go To Bed

When you go to bed

You just turn your back to face him

Nothing can be said

You didn't fall in love to hate him

The nights of naked gloom

And lonely even though he's with you

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

When you fall asleep

Your dreams of love are so severe

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight

When you go to bed

Can you hide the truth you're cheating

And when you awake

Do you reach out for someone missing

Like I reach out for you

And only find the same old stranger

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

When you fall asleep

Your dreams of love are so severe

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight

The haute couture shows of love you make

The Leonard Cohen bible of fashion

If you're lonely in your dressing gown

I'm ready to wear off the peg

And ready for bed

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

When you fall asleep

Your dreams of love are so severe

When you go to bed

You tell him what he wants to hear

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight

When you go to bed

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight

'It's OK it's alright

It don't take much to stop a fight
