Tonight when the darkness comes   Why don't we treat it like a friend?   Then we'll both be glad to see the night   And we'll be hoping it's never gonna end      So don't be afraid   Of what the night time may bring   You must understand   That you can dream of anything      So fall into sleep, peaceful and deep   May this journey help you fly   When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry   When the darkness is getting stronger      Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep      Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep      You won't be alone   For I will not be denied   Under the darkest of skies   I'm gonna be by your side      So fall into sleep, peaceful and deep   And may this journey help you fly   When you can't hold out much longer, don't you cry   When the darkness is getting stronger      Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep      Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep      Well I know   I can see it in your eyes   You're tired of fighting everyday   Trying to struggle through the night      Yes I know that it's hard to carry on   So just lay down your head   And in your dreams you will be strong   Huh ohh ohh hoo      Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep   Hooh, like a child   Peaceful and deep      Oh oh huh   Sleep like a child   Peaceful and deep   And you when you lay you down   I pray your soul to keep      Oh hoh muh muh   Oh hoh oh   Hoh hoh   La la la la   La la   La ooh hoo hoo   Uh hey aye aye   (Hmmm hmmm)   La la la   La la la uh   Ayye eyeh   Sleep like a child   (Ooh ooh ooh ooh)   Sleep like a child   (Ooh ooh ooh ooh)
