The Travelling Salesman
Despite her previous song, where she argued about men with her mother, here Marian sings a wistful song to an unknown love, showing that she really does want someone to love and to love her.
[MARIAN]
Goodnight, my someone
Goodnight, my love
Sleep tight, my someone
Sleep tight, my love
Our star is shining its brightest light
For goodnight, my love, for goodnight
Sweet dreams be yours, dear
If dreams there be
Sweet dreams to carry you close to me
I wish they may, and I wish they might
Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight
True love can be whispered from heart to heart
When lovers are parted, they say
But I must depend on a wish and a star
As long as my heart doesn't know who you are
Sweet dreams be yours, dear
If dreams there be
Sweet dreams to carry you close to me
I wish they may, and I wish they might
Now goodnight, my someone, goodnight
Goodnight
Goodnight
