Safe Across The Dark (Alt)

One, two, the latch is tight Three,

four, out goes the light

Sand is slipping through your hand

No more footsteps in the land (shhh)

Something stirs behind the door

Shadows stretch across the floor

Sleep now, I will keep you safe

from the dark

(from the dark)

Sleep now, let the shadow leave its mark

Five, six, the lock is turned Seven,

eight, the candle burned Close your eyes and do not look

Just like it says in the book

Don't look out...

(don't look)

Sleep

now, I will keep you safe

from the dark

(from the dark)

Sleep now, let the shadow leave its mark

(shhh...

sleep...)
