  sweet dreams
  
  go to sleep my babies
  don't you wake up
  the stars will keep you company
  so close your eyes
  old uncle moon will shine his dearest sweetest dreams
  and hold you in your arms
  until the morning comes.
  
  night light
  
  dark the night, not a sound
  damp and cold, frosty ground
  above your head the lion screams
  to tear you from your moonlit dreams.
  
  damp with sweat, mouth is dry
  twisted branches catch the eye
  beside your bed the angel stands
  you cannot touch his withered hands.
  
  guardian angel
  
  as the lion's eyes dance before me
  they are kindly yet bloody red
  i can see that he is smiling
  but i cannot live inside his head.
  
  there the needle stands before me
  i climb inside it towards the light
  where the angel stands in glory
  his sword of peace defends the night.
  
  so the world is spread before
  as i fly high on angel wings
  but the angel is deceiving
  for he is weeping as he sings.
  
  night light
  
  early birds, morning breeze
  spinning leaves, sleepy trees
  gently tap the window pane
  it's good to see the sun again.
