When You Go to Bed

When you go to bed You just turn your back to face him Nothing can be said You didn't fall in love to hate him The nights of naked gloom And lonely even though he's with you When you go to bed You tell him what he wants to hear When you fall asleep Your dreams of love are so severe When you go to bed You tell him what he wants to hear "It's OK, it's alright" It don't take much to stop a fight When you go to bed Can you hide the truth you're cheating? And when you awake Do you reach out for someone missing? Like I reach out for you And only find the same old stranger The haute couture shows of love you make The Leonard Cohen bible of fashion If you're lonely in your dressing gown I'm ready to wear, off the peg And ready for bed
