While You Sleep lyrics
by Tracy Lawrence



Sometimes I go for days I'm ashamed to say

The world moves so fast and the words come so slow

And I let those excuses get in my way

While you sleep sometimes I lie awake and watch you breath

In the silence that surrounds the dead of night

Bear my soul that all the words sound right

I pray the lord our hearts to keep while you sleep

[ piano ]

Day's march through our lives like a sad parade

Our laughter and tears our hopes and fears

And I keep remembering things I forget to say

And perhaps someday I let you know my dear that

While you sleep sometimes...

I pray the lord our hearts to keep while you sleep
