Ed Harcourt - Hush Little Voices lyrics

[Verse] I lay awake They've taken hold The whispers on the wind pursue my restless soul But it's alright, these ghostly things If I can't drown them out then I'll invite them in [Bridge] There's a storm in me It never goes away no matter what I try But in the morning light the shadows ebb away They never rest at night [Chorus] Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Won't you sleep for a little while Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Why are you never satisfied? [Verse] Not long ago you were my prey but I'm hunted now every night and day The tables turned, you're in control This fever in my mind will surely take its toll [Bridge] There's a storm in me It never goes away no matter what I try But in the morning light the shadows ebb away They never rest at night [Chorus] Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Won't you sleep for a little while Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Why are you never satisfied? [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Won't you sleep for a little while Hush little voices, don't you cry Mamas gonna sing you a lullaby Hush little voices in my mind Why are you never satisfied?
