Sleeping By Her Side

John Mayall · Other Songs - John Mayall

On a warm summer night in Arizona

Saw a girl, Lord, I want her so bad

On a warm summer night in Arizona

I saw a girl, Lord, I want her so bad



But I got no chance to tell her

Of the feelings that I have



She went back to the hills with the party

She was falling, helpless and stoned

Followed her through the night of the desert

And I waited till she slept alone



Then I laid her head on my shoulder

We were sleeping, she was my home



Bodies warm wrapped together at a cradle

She was sleeping like a baby child

Bodies warm wrapped together at a cradle

She was sleeping like a baby child



And the sun coming up on a desert

So they sleeping by the side
