Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Songtext
von Rita Pavone

Now why 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 dreamen' ll 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 heart can′t dream realize
That you′re in another's keep
So I′ll just lay me down to weep

I'll just lay me down to weep
I′ll just lay me down to weep
