Sleep Like a Child

[Verse 1]

Tonight, when the darkness comes

Why don't we treat it like a friend?

Then, we'll both be glad to see the night

And we'll be hoping it's never gonna end

[Pre-Chorus]

So don't be afraid of what the nighttime may bring

You must understand that you can dream of anything

So fall into sleep peaceful and deep

And may this journey help you fly

When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry

When the darkness is getting stronger

[Chorus]

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

[Verse 2]

You won't be alone for I will not be denied

Under the darkest of skies, I'm gonna be by your side

[Pre-Chorus]

So fall into sleep, peaceful and deep

And may this journey help you fly

When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry

When the darkness is getting stronger

[Chorus]

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

[Bridge]

Well, I know

I can see it in your eyes

You're tired of fighting every day

Tryna struggle through the night

Yes, I know

That it's hard to carry on

So just lay down your head

And in your dreams, you will be strong

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

[Chorus]

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

Ooh, like a child, peaceful and deep

Oh, oh

Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down, I pray your soul to keep

[Outro]

Oh, no

No, no, oh

Oh, oh, uh

La-la, la-la-la

La-la, la

Ooh

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Ooh)

La, la, la

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, yeah, yeah, uh

Sleep like a child

Ooh, ooh

Sleep like a child

(Ooh)
