Actress |
You see she is the actress who plays the part of snow |
And when they ask her to play Jesus well she turned down the role |
And when they ask her to play sunlight she gave it a try |
And when they ask her to play music she’ll sing till she dies |
Well she wouldn’t die of pleasure, she wouldn’t die from pain |
She wouldn’t die of starshine and she’ll forgive the rain |
And some say she whiles away her life in the lights that change her |
She will not live for friends she’ll die of strangers |
She will not live for friends she’s gonna die of strangers |
And all her young men told her they liked the songs they heard |
They loved the melodies but they didn’t understand the words |
And some say she whiles away her life in the lights that change her |
She will not live for friends she’s gonna die of strangers |
She wouldn’t live for friends she’ll die of strangers |
Won’t you lay down children, won’t you lay and take you rest |
Won’t you lay your head on you dear Saviour’s breast |
Well I love you but Jesus loves you best |
And I bid you good night, good night, good night |
And I bid you good night, good night, good night, good night, good night |
They’re gonna eat up all the children when they wouldn’t be good |
Good night, good night, good night |
You see she was the actress who played the part of snow |
And when they ask her to play Jesus well she turned down the role |
And when they ask her to play sunlight she gave it a try |
And when they ask her to play music, her own sweet music |
Now they asked her to play music and she sang till she died |
Well I love you but Jesus loves you the best |
And I bid you good night, good night, good night |
