And even if you're lying with (2nd Chorus ? ?to?) somebody

Still you're got to go to sleep alone
Well you may climb the golden stairs when we're past Jacob ?s Ladder
And you may put on golden airs and make the rich get sadder
You may learn the golden rule and sit on a golden throne
But you got to go to sleep alone

And referee the fights between the being and the seeming
And when the victor holds your hand up to the great unknown
You got to go back to sleep alone

You're got to go to sleep alone
You're got to go to sleep alone

Even if you're lying with somebody you really love
