Night Song

Would the night show you the way and cast its light until the gray?

Can you be someone you said you’d be?

And if I held out my arms would you climb into my heart?

Can you be something you said you’d be?

So I may sleep

Peacefully

I would stand beneath the pine

Catch the flames out from the fire

I would be the one to hold you if you chose

And if you want me close you know you’d only have to call

And I would gather the stars to keep you safe

So I may sleep

Peacefully

And standing there beside you

A line of those who would hurt you

And I’ll reach through them all

And I’ll gather the clouds

And I’ll be the one to keep you warm

Peacefully
