Oh Sandman - edited

Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, may my true love’s face I see.
Oh, Sandman, please do not be slow.
Each night as into sleep I go,
dust my eyes with a magic glow.
In sweet dreams may I with him be.
Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, may my true love’s face I see.

Each night as into sleep I go,
Oh, Sandman, please do not be slow.
Dust my eyes with a magic glow.
In sweet dreams may I with him be.
Oh, may my true love’s face I see
and slumber steal my grief from me.
