"Goodnight" lyrics

"Goodnight"
(originally by Cliff Eberhardt)

Sleepless nights don't bother me at all
If dawn comes, I won't worry
Something deep inside keeps me awake
I wish that you were here right beside me, woah

I recall when I was very young
And could not go to sleep
My father sang me songs to make me tired
But memories don't make it easier

So, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me
So, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me

Now I lie awake and it's no fun
Tossing and turning
I'd call you if it weren't so very late
But telephones don't bring you close to me, woah

I recall the times we stayed up late
Wide awake but still dreaming
There was nothing on this earth could make me tired
But memories don't make it easier

So, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, if you dream, you dream of me
So, goodnight, wherever you are sleeping
And I hope that if you dream, if you dream, you dream of me
And I hope that if you dream, you dream of me
