Black midnight sea
Shivering in their nest
Bird shadow cast in the moonlight
Reflecting on the waves
They might stay in this town
Or maybe no
I don't care
Little child waking up from a dream
Doesn't know what to fear
Until my messed up mind starts forming the words
Nothing I can do, just stay by your side
Fox on the prowl
Piercing eyes in the dark
Someone's hope he steals away
When the town's asleep
Until my messed up mind starts forming the words
Nothing I can say, just stay by your side
Until my messed up mind starts forming the words
Nothing I can do, just stay by your side
The day's breaking soon
Still clattering toys
Take you for a ride on my back for awhile
Till tears go away
They might stay in this town
Or maybe no. I don't care
Little child who wakes up from the dream
Until my messed up mind starts forming the words
Nothing I can say, just stay by your side
Until my messed up mind starts forming the words
Nothing I can do, just stay by your side
