The Night Lyrics

You're the night, Lilah

A little girl lost in the woods
You're a folk tale,

The unexplainable

You're a bedtime story

The one who 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
(CHORUS 2)

You're the night, Lilah

You're everything we can't see

Lilah

You're the possibility

You're a bedtime story

The one who 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

Unknown in an unlit world of old

You're the sounds I never heard before

Off the map where the wild things grow

Another world outside my door

And here I stand all alone

And driving down a pitch-black road

I can't make it

On my own
