I'll Sleep - Randy Houser

My daddy use to sing about a preacher man

who lost his wife she was his whole life

He kiss me then he tuck me in with his old guitar.

Maaan that second verus I hung on every word I drift off and get lost in

between the melody then dream and he sing

Please come back to me we gona build this spring and start a family

Please just one more day so much to

say don’t leave this way live’s on in my fondest memorys

He sing and I’d sleep…

Well I grew up like a weed thur my teenage years.

OH daddy tried but I’d bearly say goodnite.

I sure he thought my mind was

on girls and school but I was just way to cool to say I love you.

But he didn’t know when I close my eyes and turn out the lights

I’d hear

And after all those night and all these years

here we are and here he is taken his last breath and I’m man enough to cry

and hes to young to say goodbye and he is all that’s left and I’m scarded to

death

Please come back to me

right now I need you more than anything

Please just one more day so much to say

wish you could stay and he squeeze my hand

and kiss me on the check and said

you sing and I’ll sleep
