Audra McDonald A Sleepin' Bee song lyrics

When a bee lies sleeping in the palm of your hand

You're bewitched and deep in love's long looked after land

Where you'll see a sun up sky

With a morning moon

Where the days go laughing by

As love comes a callin' on you

Sleep on bee

Don't waken

Can't believe what just passed

He's mine for the takin'

I'm so happy at last

Maybe I dreams but he seems

Sweet golden as a crown

A sleepin' bee done told me

I'll walk with my feet off the ground

When my one true love

I has found

When you're in love and you are wonderin'

If he really is the one

There's an ancient sign sure to tell you

If your search is over and done

Catch a bee

And if he don't sting you

You're in a spell that's just begun

It's a guarentee 'til the end of time

Your true love you have won

Have won

Sleep on bee

Don't waken

Can't believe what just passed

He's mine for the takin'

I'm so happy at last

Maybe I dreams but he seems

Sweet golden as crown

A sleepin' bee done told me

I'll walk with my feet off the ground

When my one true love I has found
