The sun descends and the horizon goes dark
And for the time being we've reached our mark
As sleep overcomes you, remember I'm here
So if you are frightened I will hold you near

The time for dreaming has finally begun
Another day over, our journeying's done
Let wonderful wishes fill your mind
Forget all your worries, leave your fears behind

Dreams of the things that you long to see
In the dark of the night
Wishing that someday we will
Live where all is right
No more of the pain and suffering
We've endured 'til today
Just sleep and let your dreaming
Carry you away

Nothing will happen unless we press on
But I promise you that hope is never gone
Our journey's not over but we're on our way
And you will have all that you wished for someday

Dreams of the things that you long to see
In the dark of the night
Wishing that someday we will
Live where all is right
No more of the pain and suffering
We've endured 'til today
Just sleep and let your dreaming
Carry you away
This lullaby was sung to the same tune as the old version, but these are the lyrics that I used to sing to the kids I watched when I worked as a nanny. A lot of changes were made, and I don't know if it's better. I actually liked the original one better and I'm not sure why I changed it, but I guess this is okay. XD
