Go to sleep, my baby Keep those night thoughts away from your head Let the clock give a tick, the dog give a lick Your heart beats soundly on your dreamboat bed Go to sleep, my baby There is nothing the morning can't undo I will watch and weep at your peacely sleep And make sure the beddy-bugs don't get you 'Cause they'll try to harm you That's what they do How do you keep a bleeding heart wide open? How do you stand directly where you're standing? Keep your bleeding heart open When you fall what happens when you're landing? Go to sleep, my baby The world revolves around your tiny little skull It will whirr and moan as you hum the drone That a hurdy-gurdy plays to life you out of the lull Go to sleep, my baby Sleep deep now before the wolly wolly gong For your sleep is guard 'gainst the cold and hard A soft shroud of safety in a world gone wrong 'Cause they'll try to harm you That's what they do How do you keep a bleeding heart wide open? How do you stand directly where you're standing? Keep your bleeding heart wide open When you fall what happens when you're landing?
