Sophie B. Hawkins As I Lay Me Down
It felt like springtime on this February morning In the 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 (chorus) 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 (repeat chorus) 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 (repeat chorus)
