Lyrics
Sandman

All good children close your eyes
Go silently to sleep
If you feel afraid there's always
Someone there to keep
You from being harmed
A friend who's never out of reach
Sandman, sandman
All good children close your eyes
Before the lights go down
If there's trouble in your mind
He's there to ease your doubt
When you feel alone
You'll hear him shuffling around
Sandman, sandman
But your mother calls
It's time to turn out the light
And say goodnight
All you children thinking that
The man does not exist
I suggest you think again
This story has one twist
Scared that there's a figure
You've seen looming in the mist
Sandman, sandman
He's a sandman, sandman
