Can I Sleep In Your Arms

Jeannie Seeley

Can I sleep in your arms, tonight, Mister?
It's so cold lyin' here all alone.
An' I have no hold to hold on you.
I assure you, I'll do you no wrong.

Don't know why, but the one I love left me.
Left me lonely an' cold an' so weak.
And I need someone's arms to hold me.
Till I'm strong enough to get back on my feet.

I haven't smiled since he left me,
Cause a smile somehow seems out of place,
But I just need two lips to kiss me,
Then I can smile again and I can show my face.

Can I sleep in your arms, tonight, Mister?
It's so cold lyin' here all alone.
An' I have no hold to hold on you.
I assure you, I'll do you no wrong.

Can I sleep in your arms, tonight, Mister?
