Original lyrics
ENSleep sweet and deep close my eyes with a smile
Sleep come over me let me rest and dream awhile
I want to dream of two young lovers holding hands
The dreams that I used to dream way back when
All the things that could and should've been before the eternal sadness set in
Sleep sweet and deep let me rest and dream awhile
[ steel ]
Let me dream of the sunlight shining in her hair of the days with laughter in the air
Take me back to my world of happiness again before the eternal sadness set in
Sleep sweet and deep let me rest and dream awhile let me rest and dream awhile
