Counting sheep drifting into dreams
Underneath the moon's soft beams
Each one jumps a fence so serene
Guiding me to a tranquil scene
Counting sheep one by one
In the quiet of the night until the dawn
Their gentle dance a soothing hum
Leading me to where dreams come from
Woolly clouds in a starry sky
As each sheep passes gently by
Their rhythmic movements like a lullaby
In this peaceful moment I could fly
Counting sheep one by one
In the quiet of the night until the dawn
Their gentle dance a soothing hum
Leading me to where dreams come from
With each count my worries fade away
In the realm of dreams I'll stay
Wrapped in wool where I sway
In the land where the shepherds play
Counting sheep one by one
In the quiet of the night until the dawn
Their gentle dance a soothing hum
Leading me to where dreams come from
As the last sheep fades from view
I bid the night a fond adieu
In slumber's embrace I find my clue
Counting sheep until dreams come true
