lyrics

When I was a boy
Laying down to bed
Mama by my side
Fingers in my head

With loving eyes she smiled
Said, "it won't be long
'Til the morning comes"
Then she sang a song

The world is fast asleep
Won't you close your eyes
And join it in a dream
I'll see you when you rise

So I closed my eyes
Drifter off to sea
'Board a sailing ship
Was no one there but me

The ship it sprouted wings
Took off through the sky
From high among the stars
I saw that Mom was right

The world is fast asleep
Won't you close your eyes
And join it in a dream
I'll see you when you rise
