The Milky Way upon the heavens
00:15
Is twinkling just for you
00:20
And Mr. Moon, he came by
00:26
To say goodnight to you
00:30
I sing for you, I'll sing for mother
00:36
We're praying for the world
00:41
And for the people everywhere
00:46
Gonna show them all we care
00:50
Oh my sleeping child
00:55
The world's so wild
00:58
But you've built your own paradise
01:01
That's one reason why I'll cover you, sleeping child
01:06
If all the people around the world
01:17
They had a mind like yours
01:22
That'd be no fighting and no wars
01:27
There would be lasting peace on Earth
01:31
If all the kings and all the leaders
01:37
Could see you here this way
01:42
They would hold the Earth in their arms
01:47
They would learn to watch you play
01:52
Oh my sleeping child
01:57
The world's so wild
02:00
But you've built your own paradise
02:02
That's one reason why I'll cover you, sleeping child
02:07
I'm gonna cover my sleeping child
02:18
Keep you away from the world so wild
02:29
Keep you away from the world
02:33
Away from the world so wild
02:35
Oh my sleeping child
02:42
The world's so wild
02:46
But you've built your own paradise
02:48
That's one reason why I'll cover you, sleeping child
02:53
Oh my sleeping child
03:03
The world's so wild
03:06
But you've built your own paradise
03:08
That's one reason why I'll cover you, sleeping child

Lyrics & Translation
[English]
The Milky Way upon the heavensIs twinkling just for you
And Mr. Moon, he came by
To say goodnight to you
I 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
That'd be 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
