Jewel - Only Shadows lyrics

Think there's a monster in your closet Even if you lock it Think you can't stop it No matter how hard you try Well listen here sleepy head Close your eyes and go to bed With good thoughts in your head Tell you why it's gonna be alright [Chorus] They're only shadows They're only shadows They're only shadows In the night You walk down the street A creepy feeling starts to creep And suddenly you feel your feet Moving faster til they fly You look all around You look up and you look down But still there's nothing you have found And I will tell you why [Chorus] There are lots of things that may go bump in the night But if you use your brain you will be alright That scary noise is just the faucet dripping And the thump thump thump is the dog's tail wagging The thing you saw out of the corner of your eye Was just a shadow in the night You can't have shadows without the light No hello without goodbye No laughter 'til you cried That's just part of life The great compromise You are truly wise If you see with your own eyes [Chorus X2]
