The Everly Brothers - Asleep lyrics

Asleep

please oh please let me fall asleep

it's like heaven when I sleep

until morning I forget her

I lie awake in my lonely bed

in a room without a light

Trying hard to find a dream

that gets me through the night

But

sleep won't come

it's never there

since you're no longer mine

and sleep is such a precious thing

with your memory on my mind

Asleep

oh please let me fall asleep

it's so peaceful when I sleep

until morning nothing matters

Asleep

if I could only fall asleep

it's like heaven when I sleep

until morning I forget her

I hate to see the sun go down

and face another night

I watch the shadows climb the wall

as they try to catch the light

Asleep

oh please let me fall asleep...

Asleep

if I could only fall asleep

it's like heaven when I sleep

untill morning I forget her

Asleep

oh please let me fall asleep...
