If I Could Only Stay Asleep Lyrics

Patsy Cline

Written by ethel bassey and wayland chandler
(as recorded by patsy cline 2/13/58)
Last night I dreamed
Of you, sweetheart
Once more you loved me
You said wed never part
Its dawn again
Oh, how sad am i
My dream has ended
And tears fill my eyes
Gently swaying around my feet
Like memories from the past
Each leaf reminds me of a dream
A dream that wouldnt last
For once I know
Your promise you would keep
If I could only
Only stay asleep
(repeat last two verses)
