Don't Lay Me Down Songtext
von Jim Lindberg

Had a dream that I was following your ghost
Stripped your closets bare and spread out all your clothes
You smiled and waved and then I sadly watched you go
To give up what you cherish the most

Don′t lay me down
Don't fall asleep
I′m drowning and I can't speak
Don't wake me up
Don′t fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
Don′t wake me up

Found the letters in your sister's old suitcase
It broke my heart to find she died on my birthday
Alone and broken on an Illinois Highway
Your mother never was the same


Don′t lay me down
Don't fall asleep
I′m drowning and I can't speak
Don′t wake me up
Don't fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
Don't wake me up

Drove to the desеrt house to say my last goodbye
I ran evеry light didn′t make it there in time
Hand in hand we′ll be forever there entwined
A toast to those who gave us life
A toast to those who gave us life

Don't lay me down
Don′t fall asleep
I'm drowning and I can′t speak
Don't wake me up
Don′t fall asleep
Leave me happy in your dreams
