Time to Rest

The sun is sinking low my darling
The birds are in their nests
And you have spent the day exploring
So now it's time to rest

It can be hard to close your eyes
When there's wonder everywhere
But the sun is sinking low my darling
So rest your sleepy head

The kangaroos and wallabys
Have all hopped off to sleep
The wombats and the platypus
Lay down in burrows deep

Beneath the waves in waters calm
The stingrays glide through dreams
And the stars are coming out, my darling
So close your eyes and sleep

And way up high, beyond the trees
The moon is shining bright
And I'll watch over you my darling
So close your sleepy eyes
Close your sleepy eyes
