Lyrics "Let Me Sleep Beside You (Dave Lee Travis Show - Recorded 20.10.69) [2000 Remaste"

Baby, baby, brush the dust of youth from off your shoulder
Because the years of threading daisies lie behind you now
Don't return to fields of green where rainbow secrets were told
Place your ragged doll with all the toys and paints and beads
I will show you games where the winner never wins

 

Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you

 

Lock away your childhood and throw away the key
For now the streets and city sounds will burn your eyes as coals
We shall drink the oldest wine, and velvet skies will linger
Child, you're a woman now, your heart and soul are free
I will hold a lighted lamp, and we shall walk together

 

Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you

 

Your darkened eyes throw mystery
But your lips are void of history
You could not imagine that it could happen this way, could you?

 

I will give you dreams
And I'll tell you things you'd like to hear

 

Let your hair hang down
Wear the dress your mother wore
Let me sleep beside you

 

Let me sleep beside you
