lyrics

Sometimes before I go to sleep at night, when my working day is through
After I have put the bins outside, and watched a little evening news
And thrown my shirts into the wash, and sent some e-mails too
Sometimes before I go to sleep at night, I think of you.
Sometimes before you go to sleep at night, when your working day is done
Tucked your daughter ‘neath her blankets tight, and read a story to your son
And fixed your husband’s lunchbox right, whoever that might be
Sometimes before you go to sleep at night, do you think of me?
Some bitterness still lingers on, from when it all fell through.
Still sometimes before I go to sleep at night, I think of you
Not discontent with all I now call mine, and love, I have learned, is a narrow road
So I hope there’s somebody by your side to ease things as you go
