Asleep - The Everly Brothers

Sing me to sleep Sing me to sleep I'm tired and I I want to go to bed Sing me to sleep Sing me to sleep And then leave me alone Don't try to wake me in the morning 'Cause I will be gone Don't feel bad for me I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I will feel so glad to go Sing me to sleep Sing me to sleep I don't want to wake up On my own anymore Sing to me Sing to me I don't want to wake up On my own anymore Don't feel bad for me I want you to know Deep in the cell of my heart I really want to go There is another world There is a better world Well, there must be Well, there must be Well, there must be Well, there must be

Tell me that you love me Tell me it was worth it All the pain you caused me I know that we weren't perfect I feel I have a curse that Nothing I do works and I know that you've been hurt But I know we've had it worse, yeah And I don't want to fake it Any more than I have to Feeling tortured I grab you Try to snap us both back to When I felt like I had you It just feels like a bad mood But you're turning your back soon I've been stabbed in the back too So, it's over now It's over now There's no way we can work it out Can't work it out Every word that's coming out your mouth Is filled with doubt I don't have time to figure out What that's about I don't wanna break you down But I can feel your emotion And there's nothing to open I just think that were broken I can feel the erosion Like the coast to the ocean Every day were approachin' Just another explosion I just need to fall asleep Just to fall asleep I think I'm in too deep, yeah I just need to fall asleep Put my mind at ease Don't wanna think, just breathe, yeah Every single day Becomes another battle I'm tired due to pain Exhausted from the shackles I feel you and distain For the time we unraveled We'll never be the same Call the case, hit the gavel I never thought it'd end like this With a fight, not a kiss Nothings right, think we missed All the pride that I ditched 'Cause when I reminisce Every night, felt dismissed And I tried to forget All the pain and neglect I can't feel no more I think you finally closed that door I think you finally cleaned your drawer I guess this is the price of war And as I sit, I write these chords I still stay up at night, of course And think about what might restore My heart so I can feel once more I just need to fall asleep Just to fall asleep I think I'm in too deep, yeah I just need to fall asleep Put my mind at ease Don't wanna think, just breathe, yeah

When I was a child my family would travel Down to Western Kentucky where my parents were born And there's a backward old town that I often remember So many times that my memories are worn. And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County Down by the Green River where Paradise lay Well I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away Well sometimes we'd travel right down the Green River To the abandoned old prison down by Adrie Hill Where the air smelled like snakes and we'd shoot with our pistols But empty pop bottles was all we would kill And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County Down by the Green River where Paradise lay Well I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away Then the coal company came with the world's largest shovel And they tortured the timber and stripped all our land Well, they dug for their coal till the land was forsaken Then they wrote it all down as the progress of man And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County Down by the Green River where Paradise lay Well I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away When I die let my ashes float down the Green River Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam I'll be halfway to Heaven with Paradise waitin' Just five miles away from wherever I am And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County Down by the Green River where Paradise lay Well I'm sorry my son, but you're too late in asking Mister Peabody's coal train has hauled it away And daddy won't you take me back to Muhlenberg County Down by the Green River where Paradise lay...
