Go to sleep
Your dream is pretty
The moonlight is a flower
With a thousand shades at night
Don't you wake from bed time stories
Don't you step in the wake of tears
Go to sleep, I am awake
Like every night, the wolf will not
Jump over the garden wall
Jump over the garden wall
Now that your kite has no thread left
It won't reach up to the torn clouds
Go to sleep, mummy will stay
She loves you so much, she does,
She’ll sit still here beside your cot
All is but once upon a time
Your eyes tell me the sea’s envious
But should you throw pebbles in it
It would release the devil out
To fight me with tooth and nails
And clouds would carry you away
Back on my own in our garden
Back on my own in our garden
I would wither away, alone
Go to sleep, mummy will stay
She loves you so much, she does,
She’ll sit still here beside your cot
Go to sleep, mummy will stay
She loves you so much, she does,
She’ll sit still here beside your cot
