Chorus: <br />Go to sleep my little son and dream of things and toys <br />And I will pray for you while I'm away <br />Your too young my little man but try to understand <br />Why daddy had to go don't shed a tear <br /> <br />I can't sleep dear ol dad cause I feel so sad <br />It's hard for me to tell what's wrong or right <br />I kneel down at my bed side say a prayer every night <br />And wish that God will help along the way <br /> <br />In the springtime of our years we laughed and were so near <br />But I have reaped the seeds that I have sowed <br />Now in the yard I see a man walking hand in hand <br />With a boy like we used to you and me <br /> <br />Now it's the autumn of my years and I dream of days gone by <br />And I wonder just how your moma's doing <br />She's as pretty as before dad oh I long to see once more <br />Before the years have turned my hair to snow <br /> <br />Paul Henry Dallaire <br />Paul Henry Pub. <br />SOCAN<br /><br />Paul Henry Dallaire<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/go-to-sleep-my-little-son/
