Lyrics:

The Sandman has given me a special gift
A sleepy dream memory of our first kiss

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your affection
Cast a shadow in my direction

If the Sandman comes tonight I have a request
A snapshot dreamy keepsake of your embrace

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Bring back shadows of your affection
Cast a shadow in my direction

Bring back shadows over here
Bring back shadows of your face
We'll make shadow plays
We'll dig shallow frames
In my shady shallow cave

Shadow grows longer in my twilight sleep
I stopped then to remember
I'm just counting sheep

Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
Cast a shadow in my direction
