How Do You Sleep?

Anyone that's had the pleasure of living with me knows that I'm one of THOSE people who listens to a song on repeat in the hopes that it will make me nauseous and I'll be the HELL over it. But with the songs I truly love that never seems to happen, but I do thankfully move on to the next ditty that catches my ear.

Currently that song is How do you Sleep? by Jesse McCartney featuring Ludacris. Yes. I'm just as stunned that my two fave boys from different sides of the musical universe can come together--uniting to bring me much auditory delight.

JESSE
It's been about a year now
ain't seen or heard from you
I've been missing you crazy
how do you, how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
it still smells just like you
damn those sweet memories
How do you, how do you sleep, how do you sleep.

I tried my best at moving on have yet to find a girl like you
I see things that I didn't before and I'm wishing I had more time with you,
How do you stay awake knowing all I do is think of you
All the things we thought about that never will happen again if I could just see you

If I had my way I'll come and get you girl
In your favorite car with the missing top
man around my way where we used to park
and did all those things to steal your heart

(Chorus 2x)
It's been about a year now
ain't seen or heard from you
I've been missing you crazy
how do you, how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
it still smells just like you
damn those sweet memories
How do you, how do you sleep, how do you sleep.

Baby all that I hear from my friends again and again and again (they come and ask about you) (they say) we saw your girl at the game and damn we gotta say a big mistake by you.
Not only does your body bang but I miss the conversation too
Tell me that you couldn't sleep can't think can't eat till I come see you

If I had my way I'll come and get you girl
In your favorite car with the missing top
man around my way where we used to park
and did all those things to steal your heart

LUDACRIS
Look, now it’s been about a year,
And im trying to figure out how could you?
Forget about the one who loves you most why would you?
Heal my heart, heal my brain,
Oh how I wish you could feel my pain,
Cause I couldnt get you off of my mind if I tried,
24-7 (3-6-5) and my nights so cold,
Days so long, they say you don’t know what you got
Til’ its gone, well it’s gone and im trippin about how much I Miss it and you steady walkin round like I never exsited,
And its hard to understand, you got another plan,
Trying to play hard and you got another man,
But you’ll never find another like muah,
Like how you riding ’round in a drop top car,
Baby you a star and its time that you know it,
So much love and its time that we show it, LUDA!

JESSE
It's been about a year now
ain't seen or heard from you
I've been missing you crazy
how do you, how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
it still smells just like you
damn those sweet memories
How do you, how do you sleep, how do you sleep

It's been about a year now
ain't seen or heard from you
I've been missing you crazy
how do you, how do you sleep
I found the letter you wrote me
it still smells just like you
damn those sweet memories
How do you, how do you sleep, how do you sleep
