Let's put the day aside
Let peaceful thoughts arise
May your dreams be sweet tonight
With kisses on your cheek
And wings upon your feet
Oh, chase the moon across the sky
Close your eyes
Say goodnight to the sky and the fun
Day is done (oo, day is done)
Say goodnight, sail away, little one (my little one)
I know heaven can feel you're not far away
Tomorrow brings another day
One more thing to say
Before you dream away
Let it be
Reality
For all, not just for some
Miracles can show the world
A story filled with light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
My heart speaks out to say
Before I go away
Bless the child asleep tonight
Let the people see
The children hold the key
The Earth will turn, the sun will rise, in their eyes
Visualize a perfect place, perfect space in your mind (oo, in your mind)
Visualize rainbows in golden skies (in golden skies)
I know heaven can feel you're not far away
Let it be (let it be)
Reality
For all not just for some
Miracles can show the world
A story filled with light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
Sing a song, a children's song
And carry on the light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
Hear the song, the children's song
Tomorrow's golden light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
Miracles can show the world
A story filled with light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
Sing a song, a children's song
And carry on the light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
Let peaceful thoughts arise
May your dreams be sweet tonight
With kisses on your cheek
And wings upon your feet
Oh, chase the moon across the sky
Close your eyes
Say goodnight to the sky and the fun
Day is done (oo, day is done)
Say goodnight, sail away, little one (my little one)
I know heaven can feel you're not far away
Tomorrow brings another day
One more thing to say
Before you dream away
Let it be
Reality
For all, not just for some
Miracles can show the world
A story filled with light
All the world is waiting for a miracle that's visible
But you can see it all through children's eyes
