Shadows
"We all got nightmares in our dreams
We look for someone to believe in us and show us the way
And make it okay
The world can be dangerous"
I watched you from my seat next to the bed. You were asleep...laying down
One might even say you looked peaceful.
But I knew.
You had nightmares... You always did.
You never opened up... Never said a word.
You kept quiet.
You wanted people to know that you were strong.
And you were- are.
But you don't always have to be the strong one.
It's a mean and scary world.... but together we'll be okay
"I, I need you to understand
I don't mind your shadows
Cause they disappear in the light"
It'll be okay.
I'm here for you.
The nightmares.... All your troubles.
They come alive within the darkness.
A beacon of hope,
We can be each other's light.
"I don't mind your shadows
Cause they look a lot like mine
And listen to me, it's okay to be afraid
Just walk like you're never alone
I don't mind your shadows, your shadows
Baby, I don't"
You can talk to me,
Whenever you need.
Baby, we both have our issues.
It's what makes us who we are,
I don't mind.
Words can be helpful.
I believe in you.
I'll show you the way.
I love you to the moon and back
I whisper to you every night.
