Track 8 | Footprint | Bruce Stephen Foster
Sweet sleepy girl, lost to the world
waking when the sun’s going down
Dream through the days, live for the nights
Never show a smile or a frown
She’s a sleeper to escape,
but she dreams when she’s awake
and no one seems to care
My baby’s traveling with a hard rock band
and she just doesn’t understand
that I’d love to say I love her, but who knows where
oh, where have you gone sleepy Jones
Where have you gone sleepy Jones,
and are you ever coming home
If you hear me let me know
Where have you gone sleepy Jones
Borne in a dream, born from a song
Gone when that band came to town
I woke alone, I looked around,
Now I’m lost and she just can’t be found
She’s a lover for mankind, but a lover’s love is blind
And no one seems to care
My baby’s traveling with a hard rock band
And she just doesn’t understand that I’d love to say I love her,
But who knows where, oh, where have you gone sleepy Jones
Where have you gone sleepy Jones,
and are you ever coming home
If you hear me let me know, and
where have you gone sleepy Jones
Yes I’d love to say I love her but who knows where
Oh, where have you gone sleepy Jones
