LYRICS: Now it’s time to say goodnight Goodnight sleep tight Now the sun turn out his light Goodnight sleep tight Dream sweet dreams for me Dream sweet dreams for you Goodnight sleep tight Now the moon begins to shine Dream sweet dreams for me Dream sweet dreams for you Close your eyes and I’ll close mine Now the moon begins to shine Good night
