A song has been drifting in and out of my mind for a long time. I don't know for sure who wrote or sang it, but Hank Locklin comes to mind. Some parts of it are: "I just lay here at night, toss and I turn, loving you so, how my heart yearns..You're the reason I don't sleep at night. Parts of the chorus may be: "I'm betting you're not losing sleep over me, but if I'm wrong..etc. If anybody can get me all the words, I'd be grateful...I asked once before, but my computer was down so long, I see my messages have expired.. Anybody know how long these messages are held? ..Thanks, & "Keep on the Sunnyside.." Gary

Hi Gary..would you settle for the WEBB PIERCE version?

YOU'RE THE REASON (I DON'T SLEEP AT NIGHT) - Recorded by Webb Pierce

[D] I just lay here at night; (I) toss and I turn

[G] Lovin' you so - how my heart yearns

[D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night [A7]

[D] Walkin' the floor; feelin' so blue

[G] Smoke cigarettes ... and drink coffee, too

[D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Refrain: I'm [G] betting you're not losing ... [D] sleep over me

But [G] if I'm wrong, don't fail to call

[D] Come over and a-keep me [A7] company; ...

Sometimes I [D] go for a walk; I take a look at the moon

[G] I strum my guitar and I sing pretty tunes

Honey, [D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Repeat Refrain: TAG: Honey, [D] You're The Reason [A7] I Don't Sleep At [D] Night.

Enjoy! Gene Graham...

I have the Bobby Edwards version. I think that's the one you want.

Of course, I mean the version PERFORMED by Bobby Edwards. It's one of my favorite country records.
