The sandman told me he's done all he can
The situation calls for more than sand
You been cryin' all night long
Tossin' and turnin' and it's almost dawn
I am here I'm gonna help you sleep
Count on me instead of countin' sheep
Close your eyes and leave the rest of me

You'll have sweet dreams that'll last all night
And easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with the touch of the hand
From the sleep tight goodnight man

Soft and soothing as a lullaby
I'll kiss the tears from those weary eyes
And in the morning you will understand
You've been touched by the goodnight man
I'll rock you gently like a rolling wave
Hold you in my arms till you drift away
Just lay back and leave the rest to me

You'll have sweet dreams that'll last all night
And easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with the touch of the hand
From the sleep tight goodnight man

You'll have sweet dreams that'll last all night
And easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with the touch of the hand
From the sleep tight goodnight man

You'll have sweet dreams that'll last all night
And easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with the touch of the hand
From the sleep tight goodnight man
