Bedtime

Sleep well, sweet child,
For it's not yet time to play
It's time for rest and relaxation
Morning is still a while away

Close your eyes, sweet child,
And listen to your lulaby
If you become a bit lonely
Hug your teddy extra tight

Dream sweet dreams, child
For they will keep you company
Make them memories of joyous times
Then nightmares won't be as many

As the morning sun rises
And your sleepy eyes open
You'll forget your dreams and jump from bed
For it's time for play to begin
