Sleep Tight, Goodnight Man    (1978)

The sandman told me he's done all he can
The situation calls for more than sand
You've been crying all night long
Tossing and turning and it's almost dawn

I am here, I'm gonna help you sleep
Count on me instead of counting sheep
Close your eyes and leave the rest to me

And you'll have sweet dreams that will last all night
An easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with a touch of the hand
From the sleep tight, goodnight man

Soft and soothing and as a lullaby
I'll kiss the tears from those weary eyes
And in the morning you will understand
That you've been touched by the goodnight man

I'll rock you gently like a rolling wave
Hold you in my arms until you drift away
So just lay back and leave the rest to me

And you'll have sweet dreams that will last all night
An easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with a touch of the hand
From the sleep tight, goodnight man

And you'll have sweet dreams that will last all night
An easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with a touch of the hand
From the sleep tight, goodnight man

And you'll have sweet dreams that will last all night
An easy feeling in the morning light
Drift away with a touch of the hand
From the sleep tight, goodnight man

Lyrics by Jeff Alan Silbar and John Samuel Lorber.
