I'll sleep one night with my heart in my hand
With some tears in my eyes and a dream in my head
To see someone or to feel a thing
To be someone or hold a hand
Then I heard a cry from the dark it came
I was scared but I looked and it was a fear
A scary tingle in the chain
Sitting all alone in the pouring rain
Saying, saying till morning
Sit next to me and hold me
I'll be yours forever
And you'll be mine for just once again
We talked all night about things we loved
And laughed all night till our bellies hurt
She looked so pretty in her bow-tie dress
That her mother made her love and care
And she gave me her, the good on me
Kissed my lips and hugged me
Then she screamed so loud
When she heard a dog
Say my name
And came into my arms
Saying, saying till morning
Sit next to me and hold me
I'll be yours forever
If you'll be mine for just once again
Now that you're gone
Who's gonna sing you to sleep?
And when you're hungry
Give you a wine to drink
I hope you never cry
But if you ever cry
The tears that fall around you







You'll be mine for just a night
No, I don't sleep
With my heart in my hand
Cause I know that you're not
Coming back
Again
