I Can't Sleep
Commander Tom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't sleep
And I can't eat
Thinkin 'bout you cuz you got me in heat
I really like
For us to meet
You can do it hot cuz yo got me in heat

I know you're thinkin that
I am some silly girl
You don't know me at all
Boy I'll whack your world
You see there are the dreams
It's like they're all the same
I want to play a game
Tell me what's your league is

I can't sleep
And I can't eat
Thinkin 'bout you cuz you got me in heat
I really like
For us to meet
You can do it hot cuz yo got me in heat

I can't sleep
And I can't eat
Thinkin 'bout you cuz you got me in heat
I really like
For us to meet
You can do it hot cuz yo got me in heat
I can't sleep
And I can't eat
Thinkin 'bout you cuz you got me in heat

I got cold chills




I'm feeling weak
My temperature is high cuz you got me in heat
