Dreamland
Come away with me, my little child
Come sail with me to the land of dreams,
Where nothing is quite as it seems.
Where laughter rings out loud and clear
And happy folk sing and cheer.
Where gaiety lasts all the day
And fairy nymphs just like to play.
Oh, come away with me, my little one
Let's join the fairies in the sun.
For it's time to go and have some fun
Before our night-time dreams are done.
Just close your eyes and softly sleep,
Close them now you must not peep.
All aboard, now off we go
Let's sail the dream the fairies know.
