Sleep, lay me down, hold me closely in your arms And I will close my eyes Please, promise me that when I wake up from my dreams You`ll be there by my side
Love, if you say you won't slip away Then I can go dreaming of forever more But I won't rest until I know that you`ll be here in the morning by my side
Here in my reach I can see the one that I've waited for so long And deep in my heart I`ll know the arms that hold me now Will hold me from now on
I dread the dawn I awake and find you gone Please tell me you will stay Then sleep will come, I know my love has found a home In your arms all my days
