You're the night, Lila A little girl lost in a storm 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 You're the night, Lila You're everything we can't see Lila, 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 song 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 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
