white flannel of egypt worn soft & fine
wrapped in story's tender line
train & owl songs define this night
as stars pour down brilliance bright
goodnight the sun who rules our day
who lights our step, chasing all grey
goodnight to dogs & bears & horses
creatures who grace our daylight courses
goodnight to colors bold & bright
time now for stars & moon of night
goodnight to the weary
goodnight
goodnight
hold close to dreams
to awake at sun's light
