Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep
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 crying 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 crying 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.
I'll just 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 crying 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 crying 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.
I'll just lay me down to weep...
