Leroy Van Dyke - Now I Lay Me Down lyrics

(Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep) Now I lay me down to sleep I pray tonight that I won't weep For the girl who went away And left me here to hurt this way If I die before I wake At least my heart won't ache Now I lay me down to sleep Bless the girl that I still love May she find true happiness And make me strong enough To overcome this loneliness The sandman's waiting patiently But there's too many memories I know tonight that I won't sleep So I lay me down to weep Now I lay me down to weep
