Tonight when the darkness comes
Why don't we treat it like a friend?
Then we'll both be glad to see the night
And we'll be hoping it's never gonna end
So don't be afraid of what the night time may bring
You must understand that you can dream of anything
So fall into sleep, peaceful and deep
May this journey help you fly
When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry
When the darkness is getting stronger
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
You won't be alone for I will not be denied
Under the darkest of skies I'm gonna be by your side
So fall into sleep, peaceful and deep
May this journey help you fly
When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry
When the darkness is getting stronger
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
Well I know, I can see it in your eyes
You're tired of fighting everyday, trying to struggle through the night
Yes I know that it's hard to carry on
So just lay down your head and in your dreams you will be strong
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
Like a child, peaceful and deep
Sleep like a child, peaceful and deep
And you when you lay you down I pray your soul to keep
