"Asleep" lyrics - THE EVERLY BROTHERS

Asleep
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
Tryin' 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
It's so peaceful when I sleep
Until morning nothing matters

Asleep (I lie awake in my lonely bed)
If I could only fall asleep (In a room without a light)
It's like heaven when I sleep (Trying hard to find a dream)
Until morning I forget her (That gets me through the night)

Asleep (I hate to see the sun go down)
Oh now let me fall asleep (Face another night)
It's so peaceful when I sleep (I watch the shadows climb the wall)
Until morning doesn't matter ( As they try to catch the light)
Asleep...
