about

A lullaby for a little boy. I love the idea that when we sleep, we “take the Sandman’s Ride.”

lyrics

The Sandman’s Ride


Sleep little boy
I’ll be downstairs
Looking out for your troubles
Watching over your cares
You are safe in this night
We are all nearby
Sleep little boy
Take the sandman’s ride

Sleep little boy
You are made of the dust from the stars
So fly high in your dreams
And remember who you are
Where you are not afraid
And you don’t have to hide
Sleep little boy
Take the sandman’s ride

Sleep little boy
Until you wake
Let go of your worries
Of the turns your world might take
When the boat looks small
And the sea looks wide
Sleep little boy
Take the sandman’s ride
