The 7.15 To Dreamland 1939

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 25 Jun 2002

Sunny Jim, it's time to leave
your clockwork train,
twilight marks the close of another day,
tomorrow you can drive your train again,
but now it's time for you to travel away.

For the Seven Fifteen to Dreamland
is waiting and ready to start,
soon the wheels will go round
to the sound of a lullaby.
As the Seven Fifteen to Dreamland
goes puffing away down the line,
you'll be counting the sheep
as you watch ev'ry sleeper roll by.
The line is clear little engineer
Dreamland is right ahead,
the whistle's blown
the day has flown
and the signals says
"Time for bed"
May the beautiful angels guard you
and watch you till dawn is in sight,
on the Seven Fifteen to Dreamland
through the night.

Sunny Jim, your dream express
must leave on time,
All aboard! We're leaving without delay,
so up the station stairs we'll start to climb,
a goodnight kiss,
and you'll be steaming away.
