Lyrics
Go to sleep, my darling
Soon your dreams will come in sight
Your day is done, my darling
Now, goodnight, may you have a good night tonight
Refrain
Bonne nuit, goodnight, just dream away
The dawn will light a bright new day
Be cheerful in your sleepytime pray’r
The tearful never get anywhere, so don’t despair
Bonne nuit, my love dream of a land
Where stars above fall in your hand
And someday we’ll find this where and when
Bonne nuit, goodnight, ’til then
