Bright Eyes

Lila

Close your eyes
The dark outside can't hurt you
The stars are so glad that they've found you
And I will never desert your bedside
So close them tight
They shine their light
And on the blankets that surround you
They shine their light
As you slip into a perfect, peaceful sleep
So rest your head
And morning will come

And I will be there
And I will be watching from the doorway
In all its simple glory
And you will find the light
Standing in your shadow
Knowing that you once were mine
My baby, my girl
All mine, my baby
My baby
