Hush now, love, close your eyes,
The moon is risin’ in the skies.
Stars are twinklin’, shinin’ bright,
It’s time to say goodnight.

The crickets sing their lullaby,
Oak trees are swayin’ high.
Softly now, the night is nigh,
Rest your head, don’t cry.

Fireflies are glowin’ so,
Like little lanterns in a row.
Sweet dreams are comin’, soft and light,
To guide you through this Southern night.

In the arms of the soft breeze,
You’ll find rest with such ease.
Let the world just fade away,
‘Til the break of a new day.

Hush now, love, sleep so sweet,
Feel the rhythm of your heartbeat.
In this quiet, peaceful night,
Ev’rything’s gonna be all right.

So close your eyes and drift away,
We’ll greet the mornin’ light of day.
Hush now, love, sleep so tight,
Goodnight, my love, goodnight.

As the stars up high do shine,
Know you’re always on my mind.
Rest easy, child, ‘neath this moonlight,
Goodnight, my love, goodnight.

In the hush of night so deep,
Feel the magic as you sleep.
Dreams will take you, pure delight,
Goodnight, my love, goodnight.
