Victoria Anderson-Throop Poet Lyric

All the Wonders For Put Me To Sleep Contest

EVERY WONDER OF THE WIDE WORLD

Darling friend,  pain will end
Go to sleep my lively lady
When you wake you shall have
Every wonder of the wide world

Sweet rose day
Worlds away
Every lover that you treasured

Books and words
Dreams and birds
Every thought that can be measured

Darling friend, pain will end
Go to sleep my lively lady
When you wake you shall have
Every wonder of the wide world

(repeat all verses until beloved conks out!)


Melody:  All the pretty little horses
(my favorite childhood song, sung to my children as well)
