Lyrics Michael Learns to Rock

Michael Learns to Rock

Sleeping Child

The Milky Way upon the heavens

Is twinkling just for you

And Mr. Moon, he came by

To say goodnight to you

I'll sing for you, I'll sing for mother

We're praying for the world

And for the people everywhere

Gonna show them all we care

Oh, my sleeping child the world's so wild

But you've built your own paradise

That's one reason why

I'll cover you, sleeping child

If all the people around the world

They had a mind like yours

We'd have no fighting and no wars

There would be lasting peace on Earth

If all the kings and all the leaders

Could see you here this way

They would hold the Earth in their arms

They would learn to watch you play

Oh, my sleeping child the world's so wild

But you've built your own paradise

That's one reason why

I'll cover you, sleeping child

I'm gonna cover my sleeping child

Keep you away from the world so wild

Keep you away from the world

Away from the world so wild

Oh, my sleeping child the world's so wild

But you've built your own paradise

That's one reason why

I'll cover you, sleeping child

Oh, my sleeping child the world's so wild

But you've built your own paradise

That's one reason why

I'll cover you, sleeping child
