The moon's on the rise As your sleepy eyes are slipping and drifting away And soon I suppose Your eyes will close At the end of a rumble-down, tumble-down day So dream on sweet dreamer Heaven your heart to keep Dream on sweet dreamer Dream on Dream long Dream deep There's a boat on the lake Just a-waiting to take you bobbing and bouncing across With your dreams there to guide you And me right beside you You can sail on forever and never get lost So dream on sweet dreamer Heaven your heart to keep Dream on sweet dreamer Dream on Dream long Dream deep As you drift through the night T'ward the dawn's distant light May your waters be calm And your future be bright And dream on sweet dreamer Dream on Dream long Dream deep Dream on Dream long Dream deep
