Little girl lost
|
In a forest of dreams.
|
It's a dark old wood
|
And it's damp with dew.
|
Hoot owl hoots
|
For a moment it seems
|
Something big and cold
|
Just got ahold of you.
|
Just when everything gets scary,
|
Daddy's come 'round for his darlin' again.
|
Hold my hand with your little fingers.
|
Daddy's loving arms gonna gather you in.
|
Ain't no way the Bogeyman can get you,
|
You can close your eyes, the world is gonna let you,
|
Your daddy's here and never will forget you,
|
I will take you home.
|
I will take you home.
|
Gonna carry you back home
|
In my arms.
|
I will take you home.
|
|
Long is the road
|
We must travel on down.
|
Short are the legs
|
That will struggle behind.
|
I wish I knew for sure
|
Just where we're bound,
|
What we will be doin'
|
And what we're gonna find.
|
Wherever we go, there will be birds to cheer you
|
Flower to color in the fields around.
|
Wherever we go, I'll be right here near you
|
You can't get lost when you're always found.
|
|
Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you
|
Your daddy's gonna be right here beside you
|
If your fears should start to get inside you
|
I will take you home.
|
I will take you home.
|
Gonna carry you back home
|
In my arms.
|
I will take you home.
