the chesty cough


The nights I hear
The constant coughing in the silence
You can't sleep it right
The chesty cough makes it bad

You lie on the folding chair
Trying hard to get into sleep
But the chesty cough disturbs you
In the night taking away dreams

You try your best to sleep
But sleep never comes right in
You cough it bad in the night
The virus never wants to die

The specialist says nothing serious
He prescribes cough mixture
And throat liquid to soothe it
But the chesty cough comes

Now try home remedy
Honey with grapes mix together
It is hope to remedy the chesty cough
Cause by flu or cold as its base

And the nights the sleepless time
She coughs badly at a corner
Trying hard to fall asleep
But the chesty cough refuses to die

And I keep a watchful eye
In the nights I listen in the silence
I pray to dear God let her sleep well
Let her be sunny in the morning
