Biografía:
The New Colony Six were an American rock band of the 1960s, although the group also specialised in lyrically romantic pop songs.
The group was formed in 1964 in Chicago, Illinois. Their biggest local hit was 'I Confess', taken from their first album 'Breakthrough' (1966). After the success of 'I Confess', they had more minor hits like 'Love You So Much' (1968), 'I Will Always Think About You' (1968) and 'Things I'd Like To Say' (1969).
There had been quite a lot of changes in the lineup of The New Colony Six.

Band : New Colony Six
Song : I Lie Awake
From _Blitz_ #23, 11/77:
Mike McDowell: I hope you know what I'm referring to, but would you
consider George Gershwin a major influence?
Ray Graffia: You mean the fact that we stole 'Rhapsody In Blue'?
MM: Exactly! Of course I'm thinking of the 'I Lie Awake' single.
RG: We sang 'Rhapsody In Blue' in the high school chorus, and we
liked it enough to transform it into one of our own songs.
"I Lie Awake"
(Gerry VanKollenburg - Ray Graffia)

I lie awake counting my time

A breaking heart, a troubled mind

A mournful soul which I have signed away

I want my love back
Verse 2:
I lie awake in love this time
No broken heart, no troubled mind
No mournful soul, I'm treated fine 'cause now
I've got my love back

Will be together and you'll be mine
You and I-i
The stars, the sun, and the moon will shine

I didn't know what they all knew
I was fooled
Couldn't believe what you were doin'
I was true
You know I wish that you were too

Life... was so carefree
But you... never really cared for me
