Welcome once again to Music Monday where I offer you all a song that I really like. If anyone wants to join in then please feel free to have a go! 🙂
Metallica: Enter Sandman.
Say your prayers little one
Don’t forget, my son
To include everyone
Tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
‘Till the sandman he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tightExit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We’re off to never-never landSomethings wrong, shut the light
Heavy thoughts tonight
And they aren’t of Snow White
Dreams of war, dreams of liars
Dreams of dragon’s fire
And of things that will bite
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tightExit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We’re off to never-never landNow I lay me down to sleep
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I die before I wake
If I die before I wake
I pray the lord my soul to take
I pray the lord my soul to takeHush little baby, don’t say a word
And never mind that noise you heard
It’s just the beasts under your bed
In your closet, in your headExit, light
Enter, night
Grain of sandExit, light
Enter, night
Take my hand
We’re off to never-never landYeah!
We’re off to never-never land
Take my hand
We’re off to never-never land
Take my hand
Taken from the album: Metallica (1991).

Love this song. I listen to it last month as a tribute on my aunt’s birthday. She died many years ago.
