Hide Child

I can see through you beyond the curtain

Inside, inside you

Winter is with you, ice in your eyes

This cold night, cold night

Hide child, I am but a breath away

Hide child, as you turn your face away

Hide child, everything is clear to me

Hide child, somebody be near me...bye bye

Evening lingers so I am alone now

So tired, so tired

Finding that my disappointment

Is the only way to follow

The light, the light

Hide child, shadows are your only friend

Hide child, as the shape of night descends

Hide child, the rain around me

Makes me want to cry child

Tell you about me

Some things you choose

You can't make up your mind

So you lose it in time, in time

Hide child, quietly behind the door

Hide child, who can I be looking for

Hide child, somewhere there I can't be sure

Hide child, the room is empty

Slow down...

Slow down...
