No Cierres Los Ojos, Niño

Don't Close Your Eyes, Kid

No Cierres Los Ojos, Niño

Don't close your eyes, kidNo cierres los ojos niño
It makes me really sadQue a mi me da mucha pena
To sing to you and you not hear meCantarte y que no me oigas
To look at you and you not see meMirarte y que no me veas

Don't close your eyes, kidNo cierres los ojos niño
The night is full of starsQue la noche está de estrellas
With a chocolate moonCon luna de chocolate
And little lights like cinnamonY luceritos de canela

I'm gonna tell you a storyTe voy a contar un cuento
A story so you won't sleepUn cuento pa' que no duermas
About wolves with long teethDe lobos con dientes largos
And witches that aren't niceY brujas que no son buenas

I want you to stay awakeYo quiero que este despierto
I want you to not fall asleepYo quiero que no te duermas
I want you to scream at meYo quiero que tu me grite
And break the new cribY rompas la cuna nueva

Seeing you sleep is sadQue verte dormir es triste
It really scares meQue a mi me da mucho miedo
What if your eyesQue a ti se te ponga
Turn completely blackToíto tan negros

I'm gonna tell you a storyTe voy a contar un cuento
A story so you won't sleepUn cuento pa' que no duermas

I want you to sing to meYo quiero que tu me cantes
I want you to put me to sleepYo quiero que tu me duermas
So you can light up my dreamsPa' que ilumines mis sueños
With your little strawberry eyesCon tus ojitos de fresa

I want you to stay awakeYo quiero que estes despierto
I want you to not fall asleepYo quiero que no te duermas
I want you to cry for meYo quiero que me llores
To run and throw stonesQue corras y tires piedras

Seeing you sleep is sadQue verte dormir es triste
It really scares meQue a mi me da mucho miedo
What if your eyesQue a ti se te pongan
Turn so darkTus ojitos tan negro

I want you to sing to meYo quiero que tu me cantes
I want you to put me to sleepYo quiero que tu me duermas
