Lyrics

Sandman

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You were loved before you had arrived

And every day that love just multiplies

Daddy made your bed and your lullaby

And mumma made the mobile in the sky

And loving you is easy

But life will not always be

Fall into the world of your song

Whatever you feel can never be wrong

Come along for the ride

And in the shake of the lamb's tail, we'll go

Yeah, be still now and close your eyes

And dream

Hanging out with the Sandman

You look so sweet, my child

Hanging out with the Sandman

And though there's rain outside

You'll bе warm and dry

The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now

So go to sleep, my lovе

Hanging out with the Sandman

Chocolate-covered roof and candy cars

Rainbow sugar river we can sail upon

Marshmallow books and strawberries

Snowmen made of ice cream

Over the flower fields, we'll fly

We'll count the fish in the sky

Honeybees and birds sing your song

Whatever you feel can never be wrong

Come along for the ride

And in the shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go

Yeah, be still now and close your eyes

And dream

Hanging out with the Sandman

You look so sweet, my child

Hanging out with the Sandman

And though there's rain outside

You'll be warm and dry

The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now

So go to sleep, my love

Hanging out with the Sandman

Come along for the ride

And in the shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go

Yeah, be still now and close your eyes

And dream

Hanging out with the Sandman

You look so sweet, my child

Hanging out with the Sandman

And though there's rain outside

You'll be warm and dry

The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now

So go to sleep, my love

Hanging out with the Sandman

We're hanging out with the Sandman

We're hanging out with the Sandman

We're hanging out with the Sandman
