Everywhere children
Are resting their heads
Ready to cuddle up
Close in their beds

With someone to tell them
A once-upon-a-time
Or sing them asleep
With a lullaby rhyme

A laugh and a tickle
My treasure to hold
I’ll tell you a story
You love to be told

And when you get sleepy
I’ll turn out the light
And be quick with the water
But slow with goodnight

Cause for once-upon-a-timing
And treasures to hold
And for being tucked in
We are never too old
