Goodnight
May 24, 2010
Sing me a song
While I lay my head down
Keep the howling wind silent
And the under-the-bed-monsters bound
Caress my cheek
Sweep back my hair
Kiss my eyelids
Bring me my teddy bear
Lift up the covers
Let them fly over our heads
By the time they plummet down
The whole world will be fast asleep in their beds
Tell me a story
About Kings and queens
Read me a book
About magic beans
Tell me you love me
Fill my room with sparkling moonlight
Leave the door cracked open
And that is how you say goodnight
