Sleep tonight little girl
Go right in through
No-one can wake you now

You're falling through your dreams
Sliding down every beam
'Cos you don't know how


Don't know how to hurt
Don't know how to lie

You just don't know how to do it
You couldn't if you tried
'Cos you're wired to the moon


You innocent light
Will be shadows too soon

Sleep little angel
Stay wired to the moon


Faraway in the night
I saw my mother
She was looking at you

She said to me "My son
Don't you wake that little girl
Though I know you're wanting to

'Cos you're wanting to laugh
And you're wanting to play
Leave her in sweet dreams

She may lose them one day
Keep her wired to the moon"


Like a girl I once knew
She was once happy too
Sleep little angel

Stay wired to the moon
