Got the mobile spinning from the ceiling And the moon's making patterns on the wall Reflected from the spires and the midnight briers Where the owls start the call Goodnight to the shadows climbing up the door Goodnight to the scary clothes heap You kiss goodnight the ghosts underneath the bed Before you fall asleep And your mind's spinning through all the day's scenes As your heart beats loud in your ear Apparently surprised now you've closed your eyes To find your troubles are still here And you're trying hard to distract yourself But now you've run out of sheep And then you get the whole world inside your brain Just because you can't sleep Bring out a drum for the hiding sun Pull out the heart from your ear Just a little reminder that you're still alive Before your wits disappear Leave the moon to the ghouls and the midnight pools And the vampires too tired to sleep And don't let the world occupy your brain Just because there are no more sheep And hug all the monsters underneath your bed Before you go to sleep
