America is an English-American folk rock band, that originally consisted of Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell and Dan Peek. The three members were barely out of their teens, when they became a musical sensation during 1972, scoring No. 1 hits and winning a Grammy for best new musical artist. Their recording success stretched throughout the 1970s; some of the band's best known songs are "A Horse with No Name", "Sister Golden Hair" (both of which reached No. 1), "Ventura Highway", "Tin Man", "Daisy Jane", and "Lonely People". George Martin produced seven of their albums. more »

I took a walk around the yard 
Dug the flowers til it got too hard 
I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today 
And I watched the children play 

And then I went down, down to Lucy's old Cafe 
Put a half a case away 
I took a sleeping pill and tried to watch TV 
But you know baby the leading lady looked too much like you for the likes of me 

And I woke up crying in my sleep 
I was talking to your pillow 
And I reached out to touch your hand 
And knocked the phone off the nightstand 
And the operator said, "May I help you please?" 
No thanks baby there's nothing you can really do for me 
I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me 
I just had a bad dream 

Went out to loosen up the car 
Some how I wound up at the rainbow bar 
I had a scotch and soda on the run 
But I didn't get too far 

And then I ran down, down some friends I used to know 
Dragged them out to see the show 
I drew myself a bath and I tried to read your book 
But you know baby this time it just didn't seem quite worth the time it took 

And I woke up crying in my sleep 
I was talking to your pillow 
And I reached out to touch your hand 
And knocked the phone off the nightstand 
And the operator said, "May I help you please?" 
No thanks baby there's nothing you can really do for me 
I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me 
I just had a bad dream, that's all that's wrong with me 

Crying in my sleep 
Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) 
Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her) 
Crying in my sleep (I woke up crying) 
Crying in my sleep (Crying trying to find her) 
Crying in my sleep
