My eyes close like the curtains after a play And my mind opens like a vista, gold in hue And my thoughts run like a river under an ocean And the sandman is given his due (yes he is, yes he is) I can't wait for me to get some sleep The sandman is on his midnight creep Slumber enter, take me deep, until I am rested My dreams sore like an angel in flight And my worries run like the sunshine runs from the night I can't wait for me to get some sleep The sandman is on his midnight creep Slumber enter, looking skyward, counting sheep I pray the lord my soul to keep until I am rested My eyes close like the curtains after a play And my mind opens like a vista, gold in hue And my thoughts run like a river under an ocean And the sandman is given his due (yes he is, yes he is) I can't wait for me to get some sleep The sandman is on his midnight creep Slumber enter, take me deep, until I am rested I can't wait for me to get some sleep The sandman is on his midnight creep Slumber enter, looking skyward, counting sheep Goodnight, don't let the bed bugs bite…
