NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP WITH YOU
(Toni Dae / Bobbi Odom)


Barbi Benton - 1974



Now I lay me down to sleep with you
The sweetest sleep comes after lovin' you
When I say 'Good Mornin'' to ya, it feels so warm and right
'Cause I lay me down to sleep with you each night

When I lay me down to sleep with you
I feel like a loved woman needs to
You do to my mind what a man should do
Oh, yes, every time I lay me down to sleep with you

Now I lay me down to sleep with you
I wake up thinkin' all my dreams came true
Wish I had more time to love you than all of my life
But let me lay me down to sleep with you tonight

When I lay me down to sleep with you
I feel like a loved woman needs to
You do to my mind what a man should do
Oh, yes, every time I lay me down to sleep with you
Every time I lay me down to sleep with you
