Lyrics
The World Has Gone To Sleep To Let Me Die
(Bob Dalpe)
Outside, the rain is singin' while I cry
The more I think about it, I don't know why
Two friends turn into lovers, then say goodbye
I think the world has gone to sleep to let me die
I took your love for granted, Babe
I took for granted the things you used to say
and how I wish I had you by my side
It seems the world has gone to sleep to let me die
I can't remember who I was
I just remember what we were
You didn't stay to say goodbye
Another year is over, another night goes by
Two lovers pass my window, in the night they fly
I know the world has gone to sleep to let me die
and now the world has gone to sleep to let me die
