Lyrics A Sleepin' Bee - Nancy Wilson feat. Cannonabll Adderley

When a bee lies sleepin' 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 mornin' dew
And where the days go laughin' by as love comes callin' on you

Sleep on, bee, don't waken
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the takin'
Oh, I'm so happy at last
Maybe I dream 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 have found

Sleep on, bee, don't waken
Can't believe what just passed
He's mine for the takin'
Oh, I'm so happy at last
Maybe I dream 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 have found
