|
There's a storm lamp on the table |
|
Throwing shadows to the gable |
|
And you swallow if you're able |
|
On a storyteller's night |
|
From the poorhouse chimes indifferent |
|
Seven towers, seven sisters |
|
Every black heart walks the distance |
|
On a storyteller's night |
|
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream |
|
Sleep, all god's children to keep |
|
Though we all lose track of time |
|
Disappears like faded lines |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
There's a chill wind at your back door |
|
And the fire cracks on the damp floor |
|
You hear footsteps but you're not sure |
|
On a storyteller's night |
|
See the night sky supernova |
|
Chase the cold moon passing over |
|
Start the dragon's fire to smoulder |
|
On a storyteller's night |
|
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream |
|
Sleep, all god's children to keep |
|
Though we all lose track of time |
|
Disappears like faded lines |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream |
|
Sleep, all god's children to keep |
|
Though we all lose track of time |
|
Disappears like faded lines |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll sleep through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll come through wind and rain |
|
Keep your nightlight burning |
|
I'll be with you once again |
