Frank Sinatra - I Couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night Lyrics






I couldn't sleep a wink last night
Because we had that silly fight
I thought my heart would break the whole night through,
I knew that you'd be sorry,
And I am sorry too,
I didn't have my favorite dream,
The one in which I hold you tight,
I had to call you up this morning
To see if everything was still all right,
Yes, I had to call you up this morning
'Cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night,
I didn't have my favorite dream,
The one in which I hold you tight
I had to call you up this morning
To see if everything was still all right,
Yes, I had to call you up this morning
Cause I couldn't Sleep A Wink Last Night

  1. D.... k....

    I had a girl I was mad about around 1986. I used to have this song running through my mind all the time. It properly suited my manic mind-set at the time. Haunted.

    I couldn't sleep a wink last night
    Because we had that silly fight
    I thought my heart would break the whole night through
    I knew that you'd be sorry, and I'm sorry, too

    I didn't have my favorite dream
    The one in which I hold you tight
    I had to call you up this morning
    To see if everything was still all right

    Yes, I had to call you up this morning
    'Cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night
    I didn't have my favorite dream
    The one in which I hold you tight

    I had to call you up this morning
    To see if everything was still all right
    Yes, I had to call you up this morning
    'Cause I couldn't sleep a wink last night

    If I made a Fallout radio station mod, this gem would be on it. Same with Dean Martin's "Smile" amongst others...

    Recorded on November 1, 1956.

    Most intimate? Best? Hardly! A year before, he recorded his best album, Wee Small Hours which he recorded crying in between songs, devastated by Ava's leaving him. Every single song on that album was a killer, packed with passion AND HE HELD HIS NOTES PLUS HE HIT THE HIGH NOTES! By the time '56 came around, he had smoked so many ceegars, that he couldn't hold his notes at the end of phrases! This song is the perfect example. He got worse with "holds" as he aged and increased his smoking. When I waited on him in '78 at a private event by Chasen's, I was given his table and changed his ceegar ashtray no less than 13 times! Although he sold a ton of records after the "Wee Small Hours" album, Sinatra was never able to reprise those performances.

    FRANK AT HIS BEST ---SMOOTH AS SILK !!!!!

    lush... a new song for me to learn
    Frank Sinatra London tribute

  11. D.... R....

    This is one of four recordings Frank made of the song, and the best. It features The Hollywood String Quartet, arrangement by Nelson Riddle. It's one of my all time favorite FS recordings. (Source: Nancy Sinatra's book, "Frank Sinatra, American Legend.")

    FRANK SINATRA! A beautiful tender ballad as only Frank could and did sing it!
    Nice to hear this! It is not one of Frank's songs that is often aired. But the words ring true, and young Frank's interpretation is flawless, as usual! He was the best singer of our time, after all!

  13. B.... C....

    Yes - in the 40's Frank did an acapella version with a choir background. His only acapella recording, and with his much younger voice. There was a musicians strike and singers weren't in the musicians union at the time.

    B.... C....

    Actually he did a few A cappella recordings at that time, including "Close to You," "A Lovely Way to Spend an Evening," "Oh! What a Beautiful Morning," "People Will Say We're in Love," "You'll Never Know," "Sunday, Monday or Always," "The Music Stopped" and "If You Please" all recorded between June and November of 1943. Then he later did an a cappella version of "Ever Homeward" for the motion picture "The Miracle of the Bells" in 1948. Some of those songs were redone later either for Columbia or Capitol and several live renditions with full orchestra from radio or concert appearances are available on CD as well. The A cappella recordings are very interesting, with a number of them rating high on the music charts.

    dose any body know where the film segments have gone from the film step livley....have they been taken off????

  15. S.... U....

    No, it was not a Sinatra album. But, Close to You is so poignant, that it reminds me
    of a phrase like that.

  16. S.... U....

    A song from an album as " tender as a kiss!". Thank you for posting.
