Now I lay me down to weep count my tears instead of sheep
|
Say my prayers turn out the light but I just lay and weep all night
|
Now I lay me down to cry pray the Lord that I might die
|
But each morning I awake and listen to my poor heart break
|
If only I could sleep at night I'd dream that you would hold me tight
|
But I can't dream and I can't sleep so I just lay me down to weep
|
|
Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes and my poor heart just can't realize
|
That now you're in another's keep so I'll just lay me down to weep
|
Sleep won't come to cryin' eyes...
|
I'll just lay me down to weep
|

Now I Lay Me Down To Weep
