Under the Stars Tonight

SLEEP, MY DARLING

Verse 1

Sleep, my darling, close your eyes,

The stars are watching from the skies,

And if the world should turn away,

My love for you will always stay.

I know sometimes the nights are long,

And life can feel so cold and wrong,

But in my heart you'll always be,

The most beautiful part of me.

Chorus

Sleep, my darling, don't you cry,

I'll be your moonlight in the sky,

And if your tears begin to fall,

I'll catch them one by one, them all.

Sleep, my darling, rest tonight,

I'll hold your dreams until first light,

No matter where this life may lead,

You're everything I'll ever need.

Verse 2

I never knew a love so true,

Until the day I found you,

You filled the empty space inside,

And gave my lonely heart a guide.

If I could give the world to you,

I'd paint the stars and oceans blue,

Just to see your smile again,

And wash away your every pain.

Chorus

Sleep, my darling, don't you cry,

I'll be your moonlight in the sky,

And if your tears begin to fall,

I'll catch them one by one, them all.

Sleep, my darling, rest tonight,

I'll hold your dreams until first light,

No matter where this life may lead,

You're everything I'll ever need.

Bridge

And when the years have come and gone,

When all the summer days move on,

I'll still be here, right by your side,

With the same love I cannot hide.

Outro

Sleep, my darling...

Close your eyes...

My heart is yours...

For all my life...

Sleep, my darling...

Sleep tonight...

I love you...

Goodnight...
