Goodnight sweetheart My mother whispers softly Ride to Dreamland tonight Mommy, will you come too? I'll bring a double-saddle And come by your window Mounted on Midnight, My jet-black rocking horse Or you can ride your own I mumble as I fall asleep Midnight knocks on my window I go out and hop on for a ride And off we fly to Dreamland We stay until he says we must return As we head for the horizon I fall asleep once again To wake up in my bed And continue my other life Until the next night When Midnight rides again
