Lyrics
- Gone are all the cares of day
I’m looking forward to the night
Mister Dream Man’s on his way
I guess it’s time for me to turn out the light
Chorus
It’s Dreamtime, dreamy, dreamy, dreamtime
It’s time to close my eyes and dream of you
It’s nighttime, nighty, nighty, nighttime
The moonbeams in the sky are sleepy, too
And all the stars overhead seem to say,
“Go to bed, go to bed, sleepyhead
You’ve got so much dreaming to do”
It’s Dreamtime, dreamy, dreamy, dreamtime
It’s time to close my eyes and dream of you
- Stars are twinkling in the sky
The sun has nestled in the West
Mister Moon Man winks his eye
He knows it’s time for ev’ry dreamer to rest
