[Lyric] I Sleep Alone (Brian Wilson)

He brings me tulips
Jewels for my ears
Laughs at my sly wit and
Kisses my tears
Brazes my beauty
Calls me his own
Yet night after night
I sleep all alone

I sleep alone
Dream alone and I weep alone
I sleep alone
'Cause his wife’s a chaperone
I sleep alone
Dream alone and I scheme alone
It's really hard when your man's not your own

He’s got a dear wife
She keeps his kids
She rules his home life
Cooks, cleans, and knits
I am his wild life
His love on loan
Never a housewife
I sleep alone
I sleep alone
Dream alone and I weep alone
I sleep alone
'Cause his wife's a chaperone
I sleep alone
Dream alone and I scheme alone
It's really hard when your man's not your own

It's a rough life
It's a cold life
When you're on your own
And your only bed companion is a silent telephone

I choose my own way
Plan my own life
Always a lover I’m
Never a wife
No wedding veil
No brides, bouquets
No marriage vows
No dues to pay

I sleep alone
Dream alone and I weep alone
I sleep alone
’Cause his wife's a chaperone
I sleep alone
Dream alone and I scheme alone
It’s really hard when your man's not your own
