[Woodland Creatures:]
Don't be afraid of the night
Only you hear the scream that you scream
Don't turn away from the light
Only you see the dream that you dream
[Hogarth:]
I'm not going to run anymore
I'm not gonna run
Away from this honeymoon
I'm not gonna run anymore
I'm not gonna run
Like a rat to a piper's tune
For you and I
Will show one another love
You and I
We owe one another love
[Hogarth and Vixen:]
We're not gonna lie anymore
We're not gonna lie
In ignorant ecstasy
We're not gonna cry anymore
We're not gonna cry
At a figment of fantasy
For you and I
Will grow together now
You and I
Will go together now
We're not gonna run anymore
We're not gonna run anymore.....no no no
[Hogarth:]
I'm not going to run anymore
I'm not gonna run
Away from this honeymoon
I'm not gonna run anymore
I'm not gonna run
Like a rat to a piper's tune
For you and I
Will show one another love
You and I
We owe one another love
[Hogarth and Vixen:]
We're not gonna lie anymore
We're not gonna lie
In ignorant ecstasy
We're not gonna cry anymore
We're not gonna cry
At a figment of fantasy
For you and I
Will grow together now
You and I
Will go together now
Don't be afraid of the night
Only you hear the scream that you scream
Don't turn away from the light
Only you see the dream that you dream
