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
