A candy-colored clown they call the sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
`Go to sleep. Everything is all right.`
I close my eyes,
Then I drift away
Into the magic night.
I softly say
A silent prayer
Like dreamers do.
Then I fall asleep to dream
My dreams of you.
In dreams I walk with you.
In dreams I talk to you.
In dreams you`re mine.
All of the time we`re together
In dreams
In dreams.
But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone.
I can`t help it, I can`t help it, if I cry.
I remember that you said goodbye.
