Lyrics: Bright Eyes. A Collection Of Songs: Recorded 1995-1997. Lila.

Close your eyes
The dark outside can't hurt you
And I will never desert your bedside

So close them tight
The stars are so glad that they've found you
And on the blankets that surround you
They shine their light
They shine their light

So rest your head
And I will be watching from your doorway
As you slip into a perfect, peaceful sleep

And morning will come
In all its simple glory
And you will find the light

And I will be there
Standing in your shadow
Knowing that you once were mine

All mine, my baby
My baby, my girl
My baby
