Verse 1
It felt like springtime 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
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
Verse 2
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
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 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
Bridge
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
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
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
Outro
I wonder why
The sun comes out again, when the sun comes out again
When the sun comes out again, when the sun comes out again
Oh oh, when the sun comes out again, when the sun comes out again
Ooh ooh, comes out... comes out...
