Because when you get sleepy your body goes into a sleep mode and takes in less air but since your awake and need more air you yawn to get 'emergency' air. Hope that helped

Yawning is believed to help regulate the temperature of the brain, increase alertness, and potentially serve a social bonding function. It may also occur in response to tiredness, boredom, or as a reflexive response to seeing others yawn.
