English: Popular collaboration by composer Richard Whiting and lyricist Raymond Egan.
THE JAPANESE SANDMAN (Words by Raymond B. Egan / Music by Richard A. Whiting, 1920) Won't you stretch imagination for the moment and come with me Let us hasten to a nation lying over the western sea Right behind the cherry blossoms here's a sight that will please your eyes There's a lady with a baby of Japan singing lullabies Hear her as she cries: "Here's the Japanese Sandman sneaking on with the dew just an old second hand man He'll buy your old day from you he will take every sorrow of the day that is through and he'll give you tomorrow just to start a life anew then you'll be a bit older in the dawn when you wake and you'll be a bit bolder with the new day you make here's the Japanese Sandman trade him silver for gold just an old second hand man trading new days for old." |
