Squeezewas a British rock music band that came to prominence in the new waveperiod of the late 1970s. The group formed in London in 1974. The two main writing partners in the band, Chris Diffordand Glenn Tilbrook, are widely considered to be among the finest melodic pop songwriters of their generation and have often been compared with the legendary Lennon-McCartney partnership, although unlike The Beatles, Difford and Tilbrook's direct collaboration on songs continued through most of the group's career. The original lineup of the band also included pianist Jools Holland, who went on to become a popular solo artist and bandleader, and is now best known as the host of the critically-acclaimed and highly successful British music TV show Later with Jools Holland. Squeeze's lineup in the 1980s also featured the lead vocals of Paul Carrack, who was also one of the lead singers of Mike & The Mechanicsas well as a solo artist.

Crying In My Sleep Lyrics
Squeeze
(difford/tilbrook)
Breaking up
Is breaking my heart
Is showing me the door
And if I get it open
Ill discover that theres much more to life than this
As I hit the wall with the full force of my fist
I concede this time to defeat
I keep crying in my sleep
Dear boy, poor boy
I keep crying in my sleep
Breaking up
Is making me see
Inside myself again
And if I can keep looking
Inside then I might change the things that I fear
It keeps my heart awake and stops the tears.
My nights are incomplete
I keep crying in my sleep
The sound of her voice
The sound of her words
I hear every breath
Each whisper is heard
But its so hard now
Now she is gone
Everything I did I did wrong
I keep crying in my sleep
And if I turn full circle
Perhaps Ill see that the road ahead is clear
When the world thats on my shoulder disappears.
At night the footsteps creak
I keep crying in my sleep
