As I Lay Me Down

As I Lay Me Down

Sophie B. Hawkins

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 it's 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

When the sun comes out again....

I will wake up happy....

This i pray....
