Lyrics

Dangerous Night

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Now some small parts seem right scattered here and there

One smiling face in a crowd that’s angry and scared

Can’t seem to see where it doesn’t get worse

It’s like one good thought getting lost in an angry verse

I try to write Buddha and it comes out guns

I vote for peace and the blood still runs

I want to believe I can pass happy to my child

But the truth gets lost and the system runs wild

Send me someone who has doubts about it

Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it

Someone who won’t give up in the frozen rain

Who’ll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain

I wake up from a dream of a baby and a blast

Scenes from the television in the blue light it cast

Seek peace in your own heart sounds true, sounds right

I’m a troubled soul searching for peace in the night

Send me someone who has doubts about it

Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it

Someone who won’t give up in the frozen rain

Who’ll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain

Trying to figure out how it all fits together

Humans and sun and oceans and weather

And even if I dream alone on such a dangerous night

Tryin’ to make all these pieces fit right

Send me someone who has doubts about it

Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it

Someone who won’t give up in the frozen rain

Who’ll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain

Even if I dream alone on such a dangerous night

Somehow I know I’m going to dream again tonight
