Sleep Well Lyrics

No more sleep goodnight kiss
Nurse's hands will tuck you in
No husband to sleep next to
The children say goodnight to you
No more missing him at night
You think that he's by your side
No more funerals to bear
Everyone who left is here

You used to say the night may be long
But the day will shortly come
No troubles have you, none
So sleep well darling til the morning

No more nights when you can't sleep
Walking through the house you'd keep
In the dark you were afraid
Someone else could slip away
You would sit beside our beds
Watch our breathing as we slept
No photos of us next to you
You can't see them but we do

You used to say the night may be long
But the day will shortly come
No troubles have you, none
So sleep well darling til the morning

Sleep well mother til the morning
