(T.Capote & H.Arlen)
|
When a bee lies sleepin'
|
In the palm o' your hand
|
You're bewitch'd and deep in love's
|
Long look'd after land
|
Where you'll see a sun-up sky
|
With the mornin' new
|
And where the days go laughin' by
|
As love comes a-calling on you
|
Sleep on, bee, don't waken,
|
Can't believe what just passed
|
He's mine for the takin'
|
I am happy at last.
|
Maybe I dreams, but he seems
|
Sweet golden as a crown,
|
A sleepin' bee done told me
|
I will walk with my feet off the ground
|
When my one true love I has found
|
Sleep on, bee, don't waken,
|
Can not believe what just passed
|
He's mine for the takin'
|
I am happy at last...
|
Maybe I dreams, but he seems
|
Golden as a crown,
|
A sleepin' bee told me
|
I will walk with my feet off the ground
|
When my one true love
|
I has found...
