Love Me Back to Sleep Lyrics by Jessi Colter

That’s the Way a Cowboy Rocks and Rolls

1978

[Verse 1]
When I awake in the night
To some old memory
Darling, don't touch the light
Just come over here with me
And watch the world go away
Come as close as you can
Let your soft skin erase
Any bad dream I've had
[Chorus]
And love me back to sleep again
Tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again
And love me back to sleep
[Verse 2]
And when I toss and turn
From another sad dream
Darling, don't say a word
To let me know what you mean
[Chorus][x2]
And love me back to sleep again
Tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again
And love me back to sleep
And love me back to sleep again
Tonight you're all I need
Put my mind at ease again
And love me back to sleep
