As I Lay Me Down

歌詞

It felt like spring time on this February morning In a courtyard Birds were singing your praise I'm still recalling things You said to make me feel alright I carried them with me today now As I lay me down to sleep This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name Into the sky And I will wake up happy I wonder why I feel so high Though I am not above the sorrow Heavy hearted Till you call my name And it sounds like church bells Or the whistle of a train On a summer evening I'll run to meet you barefoot Barely breathing As I lay me down to sleep This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name Into the sky And I will wake up happy Oh, darlin' As I lay me down to sleep This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name Into the sky And I will wake up happy It's not too near for me Like a flower I need the rain Though it's not clear to me Every season has its change And I will see you When the sun comes out again As I lay me down to sleep This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name Into the sky And I will wake up happy As I lay me down to sleep This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name Into the sky And I will wake up happy I wonder why... when the sun comes out again.... I will wake up happy.... This I pray....
