Sleepyhead

Lyrics

Some days life's gonna wear you down, gonna wear you down Some days life's gonna wear you down, gonna wear you down There's dust upon the stairs, the mansion has the air of a tomb She hardly leaves her room some days I have never been the type to go to church And I have never prayed for anyone but her But I pray for her each night, dreaming that it might catch her ear I hope, my dear, life doesn't wear you down The wind is rising The sun is shining The dawn is breaking The world is waking The church bells ring The choir sings The people pray their sins away And you feel so odd, so far from God The days are dark The nights are long Your heart is tired Of being strung along Get out of bed You sleepyhead It's another chance to start again Please don't forget that I'm your friend
