Lyrics

Hold me through the nights
when my bears can’t save me
and my ghosts are haunting.
Golden sunshine turns wicked wind
tearing through my windowpane.
Flashing, dancing on my walls.
Come to me my mother
when you hear me screaming.
All I want is a light
when my ghosts are haunting.
My bears can protect me through the night
but they can’t beat the ghosts that whisper
softly in my ear.
Can you hear me calling?
The child’s song in the night.
Go to sleep my darling.
It will be alright.
Don’t you hear my ghosts?
Or see them playing on my walls?
You turn on the lights and they disappear.
Light, oh light is my friend.
It eats the dark that holds the ghosts.
Light, yes light, is my friend.
Then you take it away.
Sleep tight my love. Good night my love.
God is watching. God is watching my ghosts, my fear.
My bears can only do so much
but at least they hear my child’s song
when the wind is laughing
and my ghosts are haunting.
