SONG STORY:
Based on a traditional song
SLEEP
Sleep baby sleep
The night is so deep
Sleep baby sleep
Hear the angels humming
Play child play
The sun shines today
Play child play
Hear the angels laughing
Fly woman fly
High up to the sky
Fly woman fly
To hear the angels calling
Come, your ma now
Needs you back at home
You’ve been gone so very long
Please come back home
I want to tell you
I’m hearing the song
Hey now hey
Night has come my way
Hey now hey
I hear the angels singing
Laugh now laugh
Heaven’s come at last
Laugh now laugh
I hear the angels coming
Laugh now laugh
Heaven’s come at last
Laugh now laugh
Heaven’s come at last
Laugh now laugh
Heaven’s come at last
