a storybook and a lullaby (Are all you need to sail to dreamland)

Dreamland waits beyond the mountains.
Far beyond the Pyranees,
Where every dream you dare to dream
At once becomes reality.
There memories like misty fountains
Whisper on a velvet sea,
And you and I can go to Dreamland
Anytime we please.

Shall we get there on an ocean liner,
Sumptous staterooms, scrumptuous fare?
While that’s a most luxurious way
To cross la grande mer verte,
No jewel of the Cunard line
Could ever hope to get us there,
But I know a way that’s quicker, cheaper,
And we don’t need to go anywhere.

A storybook and a lullaby are all you need to sail to Dreamland
A storybook and a lullaby and you’ll be on your way!
Don’t bother with your baggage, boy. Don’t pack a thing,
There’s nothing to bring.
A storybook and a lullaby and you’ll be on your way.

No scrounging for a ticket! No hordes! No crowds!
No long drawn out goodbyes.
Simply slip on your pajamas,
No tears! No drama!
Just lie back and close your eyes.

A storybook and a lullaby are all you need to sail to Dreamland
A storybook and a lullaby and your journey is underway!

No scrounging for a ticket! No hordes! No crowds!
No long drawn out goodbyes.
Simply slip on your pajamas,
No tears! No drama!
Just lie back and close your eyes.

A storybook and a lullaby are all you need to sail to Dreamland
A storybook and a lullaby and your journey is underway!
