Lyrics
[Title]
Shadows of the Night
[Intro]
[Soft instrumental intro, gradually building with gentle guitar and ambient sounds]
[Verse 1]
Whisper soft, little one, close your eyes, my dear
I'll protect you from fear
Wrapped in dreams, safe and sound, free from shadows bound
'Til the Night King draws near, ah
Sleep with both eyes open
Holding your blanket tight
[Chorus]
Embrace the night
Fear the light
Hold my hand
We journey through the Shadowland
[Verse 2]
Something stirs, shut the door, restless thoughts tonight
Not the fairy tales bright
Visions of storms, deceitful forms, creatures' breath so warm
And the things that incite, yeah
Sleep with both eyes open
Holding your blanket tight
[Chorus]
Embrace the night
Fear the light
Hold my hand
We journey through the Shadowland
Yeah
[Bridge]
Now, I lay you down to sleep (now, I lay you down to sleep)
Pray the dark your soul to keep (pray the dark your soul to keep)
If you wake before the dawn (if you wake before the dawn)
Hope your fears will all be gone (hope your fears will all be gone)
Hush, little child, don’t say a word
And forget the sounds you heard
It’s just the whispers in your head
In your closet, by your bed
[Chorus]
Embrace the night
Fear the light
Grain of sand
Embrace the night
Fear the light
Hold my hand
We journey through the Shadowland
Yeah
[Outro]
[Gradual instrumental fade, blending ambient sounds and soft guitar]
Oh
Yeah, yeah
Whoa, oh
(We journey through the Shadowland) hold my hand
(We journey through the Shadowland) hold my hand
(We journey through the Shadowland)
(We journey through the Shadowland)
(We journey through the Shadowland)
(We journey through the Shadowland)
