Sleep Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

Sleep sweet and deep visit me for awhile 

Sleep come over me let me rest and dream awhile 

Of two young lovers making plans of dreams I dreamed when dreams began 

Of things that could and should have been before the eternal sadness moved in 

Sleep take over me set me free to dream awhile 

Of sunlight shining in her hair of days with laughter in the air 

Of my world of sweetness again before the eternal sadness moved in 

Sleep sweet and deep let me rest and dream awhile let me rest and dream awhile
