Lyrics Lucy Kaplansky

Lucy Kaplansky

Goodnight

Sleepless nights don't bother me at all

And if dawn comes I won't worry

Something deep inside keeps me awake

I wish that you were here right beside me

I recall when I was very young

And I could not fall asleep

My father sang me songs to make me tired

But memories don't come so easily

So goodnight, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping

And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me

Goodnight, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping

And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me

Now I lie awake and it's no fun

Tossing and I'm turning

I'd call you if it weren't so very late

But telephones won't bring you close to me

I recall the nights we stayed up late

Wide awake but still dreaming

There was nothing on this earth that could make me tired

But memories don't come so easily

So goodnight, goodnight wherever you are sleeping

And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me

Goodnight, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping

And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me

And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me
