Goodnight Children Everywhere Lyrics by Vera Lynn

The Forces’ Sweetheart Ultimate Collection

0

Sleepy little eyes in a sleepy little head
Sleepy time is drawing near
In a little while, you'll be tucked up in your bed
Here's a song for baby, dear
Goodnight, children, everywhere
Your Mummy thinks of you tonight
Lay your head upon your pillow
Don't be a kid or a weeping willow
Close your eyes and say a prayer
And surely you can find a kiss to spare
Tho you are far away, she's with you night and day
Goodnight, children, everywhere
Soon the moon will rise and caress you with its beams
While the shadows softly creep
With a happy smile, you'll be wrapped up in your dreams
Baby will be fast asleep
Goodnight, children, everywhere
Your Mummy thinks of you tonight
Lay your head upon your pillow
Don't be a kid or a weeping willow
Close your eyes and say a prayer
And surely you can find a kiss to spare
Tho you are far away, she's with you night and day
Goodnight, children, everywhere
