Your pillow's wet, your sweat is cold
you fear the stories you've been told
your parents will stay out all night
your trembling hand turns on the light
Your room is empty, noone's there
and still you sense him everywhere
you close the door and lock it twice
(but still you'll have to pay the price)
Sandman's coming
bringing sleep
his dreams will make you smile or weep
his laughter's heard all through the night
pray that you get off with a fright
You lay down slowly and afraid
remember all the jokes you made
the evil grins fill out the air
within the tenderness of sleep
lies agony and pain so deep
Your little heart, it beats so fast
if only darkness wouldn't last
you'd save your life if you'd awake
and all your dreams would be a fake
The sun arises, birds are singing
there is a sudden doorbell-ringing
your parents step right to your bed
they're still too late, your heart stops dead
And when youl isten to the crying
for all the children that are dying
you might once hear a quiet laughter
it's Sandman, now and everafter
you fear the stories you've been told
your parents will stay out all night
your trembling hand turns on the light
Your room is empty, noone's there
and still you sense him everywhere
you close the door and lock it twice
(but still you'll have to pay the price)
