  • You were loved before you had arrived
    And every day that love just multiplies
    Daddy made your bed and your lullaby
    And mama made the mobile in the sky
    And loving you is easy
    But life will not always be
    Fall into the world of your song
    Whatever you feel can never be wrong

    Come along for the ride
    And in a shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go
    Be still now and close your eyes

    And dream
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    You look so sweet, my child
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    But though there's rain outside, you'll be warm and dry
    The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now
    So go to sleep, my love
    Hanging out with the Sandman

    Chocolate covered roof and candy cars
    Rainbow sugar river we can sail upon
    Marshmallow books and strawberries
    Snowmen made of ice cream
    Over the flower fields, we'll fly
    We'll count the fish in the sky
    Honeybees and birds sing your song
    Whatever you feel can never be wrong

    But come along for the ride
    And in a shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go
    Be still now and close your eyes

    And dream
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    You look so sweet, my child
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    But though there's rain outside, you'll be warm and dry
    The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now
    So go to sleep, my love
    Hanging out with the Sandman

    Come along for the ride
    And in a shake of a lamb's tail, we'll go
    Be still now and close your eyes

    And dream
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    You look so sweet, my child
    Hanging out with the Sandman
    But though there's rain outside, you'll be warm and dry
    The thunder and the lightning won't hurt you now
    So go to sleep, my love
    Hanging out with the Sandman

    We're hanging out with the Sandman
    We're hanging out with the Sandman
    We're hanging out with the Sandman Writer/s: Ed Sheeran, Johnny McDaid
