lyrics

2. Sandman

I’m gonna climb out my window and up the moonbeams, straight to your arms
I’m gonna shimmy up the shimmer on the river to you darlin’, and dance with the stars

Chorus:
And if that sandman comes tonight he better come bearing gold-dust,
If Mister Sandman brings me a dream, tread lightly ‘cos you’re treading on us

Oh, the sun in the sky I’m gonna plug it out and paint it all black
So the sparkle in your eye is gonna be enough to light the way back

Chorus

We’re gonna lounge by the seaside, waltz in our best black tie
We’re gonna take a balloon ride, watch real life passing by

Chorus

Oh, if he’s not too busy, maybe something more realistic
So you’ll wake tomorrow maybe with the taste of my lipstick

Chorus
