Sleep Just For Awhile
Hush sweet baby please don’t cry
I’ll sing you a love sweet lullaby
Never mind the boogie in your head
Come lay on top of your silken bed
Sweep out things you can’t understand
As I play this song on the Baby grand
You are quite special can’t you see
Many try to change like you to be
So never think any less of your self
Please come back being the naughty elf
Come let me sip water coconuts
From the word palm tree besots
You have slept long enough
Grab your pillows shake and fluff
It’s just not the same without you
Please don’t send me to sleep too
