Zita Swoon - The Night lyrics

You're the night, Lilah A little girl lost in the woods You're a folktale The unexplainable You're a bedtime story The one that keeps the curtains closed I hope you're waiting for me Cause I can't make it on my own I can't make it on my own It's too dark to see the landmarks And I don't want Your good luck charms I hope you're waiting for me Across your carpet of stars You're the night, Lilah You're everything that we can't see Lilah You're the possibility You're the bedtime story The one that keeps the curtains closed And I hope you're waiting for me Cause I can't make it on my own I can't make it on my own Unknown the unlit world of old You're the sounds I've never heard before Off the map where the wild things grow Another world outside my door Here I stand I'm all alone Driving down the pitch black road Lilah you're my only home And I can't make it on my own You're a bedtime story The one that keeps the curtains closed I hope you're waiting for me Cause I can't make it on my own I can't make it on my own
