Sandman

Close your eyes My little one Daylight’s folded Work is done On the windows Moonlight leans Here he comes to catch your dreams Sandman Sprinkle starlight on your pillow Lay your worries on the soft night wind Precious dreams are sailing past the window Guardian angel keeping watch within Sandman Stay until the morning Silver steps across the quiet sky Every breath you take is something holy Every sleepy blink A lullaby Tiny fingers Finally still Soft toy soldier on the sill In the corner Wings unfold Feathers shining pale and gold Sandman Sprinkle starlight on your pillow Lay your worries on the soft night wind Precious dreams are sailing past the window Guardian angel keeping watch within Sandman Stay until the morning Silver steps across the quiet sky Every breath you take is something holy Every sleepy blink A lullaby If a shadow wanders through your covers (shh) If a teardrop trembles in your mind There’s a hand that finds your little fingers There’s a whisper “Leave the dark behind” Sandman Sprinkle starlight on your pillow Lay your worries on the soft night wind Precious dreams are sailing past the window Guardian angel keeping watch within Sandman Stay until the morning Silver steps across the quiet sky Every breath you take is something holy Every sleepy blink A lullaby
