Lyrics

there's a shadow in the room,
makes me think of holding you
cause she's always watching me.
sit right down,
next to my bed there is a clown,
wind him up then you'll believe that i can sing.
there are pillows in the air,
you can sleep almost anywhere except the closet
cause i still believe in monsters
and i'm not ready to face them quite yet.

chorus:
look out my window miss b,
out there's a little less terrifying,
when i said, "hello love,"
you shoulda said, "hello love,
i'll never leave you in this room alone."

i don't mean to stare,
you're in my mother's rocking chair,
gliding gently cross the earth.
my bed's a little bit too high,
but let's lay on it tonight,
where else would you want to go?
turn up your head, on the ceiling
there are stars above my bed,
we stuck them stickers up when i couldn't yet reach
the top of my room, i still look at them for light.
