A Sleepin' Bee

(album: The Barbra Streisand Album - 1963)

When a bee lies sleeping
In the palm o' your hand
You're bewitch'd and deep in love's
Long look'd after land
Where you'll see a sun-up sky
With the morning new
And where the days go laughing by
As love comes a-calling on you
Sleep on, bee, don't waken,
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the taking
I am happy at last.
Maybe I dreams, but he seems
Sweet golden as a crown,
A sleeping bee done told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love I has found
Sleep on, bee, don't waken,
Can not believe what just passed
He's mine for the taking
I am happy at last...
Maybe I dreams, but he seems
Golden as a crown,
A sleeping bee told me
I will walk with my feet off the ground
When my one true love
I has found...
