1.
Now I lay you down to sleep Close your eyes, no counting sheep Into your dreams the wolves will leap so drink this whisky and go to sleep Before your breathing gets too deep Take in these words, I've promises to keep Though the mountains, they are so steep Drink this whisky and go to sleep Drink this whisky and go to sleep Before the dawn sun starts to creep Before the rooster makes a peep Before I resign and start to weep I'll drink this whisky and go to sleep I'll drink this whisky and go to sleep
2.
Lay your head upon your pillow' close your eyes unto the light let your troubles fall beside you little darling sweet goodnight codladh samh codladh samh codladh samh codladh samh let your worries of tomorrow fall away and never be may the blessings of the Father flow to you straight down through me codladh samh codladh samh codladh samh codladh samh
3.
Rest easy now For the night will hold you It beckons and calls Oh Like a Child loves their mother Good Night Sleep Tight Know the Heavens are watching over you Sweet Dreams just know I will see you tomorrow As I sing my song I Hope it finds you well If I was a younger man I would swim my way back into your arms And when I sleep I know I'll rest so peacefully As I lay in my bed with a hope inside my head Don't cry my love let the blankets keep you warm Good night to all Good night to all
4.
sometimes this house gets so loud sometimes I stand ‘neath the blackest of clouds love's when the walls all come down times I forget just how much I can hurt you the clock ticks slow I’ve got miles to go it’s hard being gone for so long but I’ve got a history of holding you wrong don’t know what happens to me I can’t find the notes and I lose harmony and the walls turn black I can’t find my way back close your eyes let the silence wash over you now nothing can hurt you tonight the hours before daybreak the stars sweep the sky under the moon’s cleansing light may you find peace I’ve taken for granted the trials that sometimes I have to drive hundreds of miles to find it all falling in place plain as the nose on the end of my face between love and peace sometimes wonders cease please don’t forget what I said specially the parts that I left in my head everything I’m all about sometimes gets lost in the screams and the shouts and the road goes by should my heart bleed dry close your eyes let the silence wash over you now nothing can hurt you tonight the hours before daybreak the stars sweep the sky under the moon’s cleansing light may you find peace
5.
Rest your head in the valley Rest your head by the sea With the wind, I will carry All your worry, set you free When the rain falls like stones And you feel like running away When you're helpless and alone I'll be here to brighten your day Darkness will come at the worst of time A journey to bring you on down With sword and with shield I will be by your side So just lie down Rest your head in the valley Rest your head by the sea With the wind, I will carry All your worry, set you free I'll carry your worries, set you free
6.
Sleep now, me darling, don't you cry Or angels will stick a pin in your eye If ye sin in yer dreams, yer soul’s gonna fry Sleep well dear, I hope ye don't die. Yer daddy drank up the dole money Yer wee brother’s eaten by fleas He woke all cold in the morning And now there's just 4 mouths to feed. Chorus Tomorrow is your first communion The priest is the holiest bard but I can't show you off in your new suit If you throw up the Lord in the yard Chorus You're the only Survivor of typhoid all the Altar Boys praying for you But don’t talk to a girl while yer healing or your girlfriend could die in the loo Chorus Good little boys die for Ireland Holy boys die for the lord Don’t matter which one that ye die for Just as long as yer stiff as a board. Chorus

Busy days and playground plays Full on energy Slide races and dirty faces 2 + 2 + 3 Amazed at the things you do each day No more of this stalling pillow time is calling... Sleep well sweet ones Close your eyes the dreams will come Telling stories and counting sheep Sweet ones, go to sleep Relax now off to sleep Field trips and battleships dodgeball in the yard Apple picking time's ticking where's my poke cards? Amazed at all you know already Stop talking and go to bed and... Sleep well sweet ones Close your eyes the dreams will come Telling stories and counting sheep Sweet ones, go to sleep Relax now off to sleep One sheep and two sheep, three Stop squirming and questioning Four sheep and five sheep go Last snuggles I love you, love you so...

Lay your head upon my chest, my child Pay no mind to thunder Dream of bell filled fields and summer green As you lie in slumber As the sun retreats behind earths line Find comfort in knowing The sheep they sleep behind the fence The fields are plowed for sewing As you lay and ponder life now passed The fear of death is growing Grab his hand remembering All the things you've shown me
10.
I've waited to long to sing you to sleep But when you wake up, I hope you believe I've been dreaming of you, dreaming of you I hope you know I believe in you I'm standing on the outside, I'm looking in I don't even know how to begin To say I'm dreaming of you, dreaming of you I hope you know I believe in you I've waited to long to sing you to sleep But when you wake up, I hope you believe I've been dreaming of you, dreaming of you I hope you know I believe in you
