0:04It felt like spring time on this February morning
0:08In a courtyard birds were singing your praise
0:14I'm still recalling things you said to make me feel alright
0:20I carried them with me today
0:22Now
0:23As I lay me down to sleep
0:27This I pray
0:29That you will hold me dear
0:32Though I'm far away
0:34I'll whisper your name into the sky
0:40And I will wake up happy
0:44I wonder why I feel so high
0:49Though I am not above the sorrow
0:52Heavy hearted
0:53Till you call my name
0:57And it sounds like church bells
0:59Or the whistle of a train
1:01On a summer evening
1:02I'll run to meet you
1:04Barefoot, barely breathing
1:06As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh)
1:12This I pray
1:13That you will hold me dear
1:16Though I'm far away
1:17I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh)
1:23And I will wake up happy
1:26Oh, darling
1:27As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh)
1:33This I pray
1:33That you will hold me dear
1:37Though I'm far away
1:38I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh)
1:45And I will wake up happy
1:49It's not too near for me
1:52Like a flower I need the rain
1:54Though it's not clear to me
1:58Every season has it's change
2:00And I will see you
2:02When the sun comes out again
2:19As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh)
2:24This I pray
2:25That you will hold me dear
2:28Though I'm far away
2:30I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh)
2:37And I will wake up happy
3:04As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh)
3:13This I pray
3:14That you will hold me dear
3:21Though I'm far away
3:24I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh)
3:33And I will wake up happy
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 (ooh la kah koh) This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh) And I will wake up happy Oh, darling As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh) This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh) 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 (ooh la kah koh) This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh) And I will wake up happy As I lay me down to sleep (ooh la kah koh) This I pray That you will hold me dear Though I'm far away I'll whisper your name into the sky (ooh la kah koh) And I will wake up happy
