Pretty Angel

Read all the news
I know all of the views
Now I got the blues

It’s time to lay down
The house without sound
But my head is loud

It’s three in the morning
And I can’t sleep
'Cause I'm still in mourning
For everything I can’t keep
Sing me to sleep
Please, pretty angel
Can’t count no more sheep
Help me, pretty angel

There is no escape
From all my mistakes
I keep playing the tape

Why did I say that?
Wish I could go back
Why’m I afraid to act?

It’s four in the morning
My eyes, they ain’t closed
Now I'm over 40
Guess this is how it goes
Sing me to sleep
Please, pretty angel
Can’t count no more sheep
Help me, pretty angel

It’s five in the morning
I'm at the end of my rope
Maybe this is a warning
That fear can dash hope
Sing me to sleep
Please, pretty angel
I'm about to weep
Help me, pretty angel

The Sun’s coming up
My eyelids are goin down
