Shadows of the Night

[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)
