Sleep Like A Child

Sleep Like A Child

Joss Stone

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 going to end

So don't be afraid of what the night-time 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

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 I when you lay you down

I pray your soul to keep

You won't be alone

For I will not be denied

Under the darkest of skies

I'm gunna be by your side

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

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 I when you lay you down

I pray your soul to keep

Well I know

I can see it in your eyes

You're tired of fighting everyday

Trying to 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

Sleep like a child

Peaceful and deep

And when you lay you down

I pray your soul to keep

Oh like a child

Peaceful and deep oh

Sleep like a child

Peaceful and deep

And I when you lay you down

I pray your soul to keep

Oh la

Sleep like a child oh

Sleep like a child
