Nighttime comes, the sun goes down,
The world grows dark without a sound,
But don't you worry, don't you weep,
For soon enough, you'll be asleep.

When the moon begins to rise,
And stars twinkle in the skies,
Close your eyes, let your dreams take flight,
And you'll wake up to the morning light.

The stars above, they blink and shine,
Guiding you to sweet bedtime time,
And as you drift off into the night,
Let your worries take their flight.

Let the darkness wrap you tight,
And sleep until the morning light,
For tomorrow is a brand new day,
And you'll be ready to rise and play.

So close your eyes, let out a yawn,
And know that you'll be safe until dawn,
For even in the darkest of night,
There's always a little bit of light.
