Sophie B. Hawkins - Nocturne lyrics

Nightmare bring me to the dawn

I must ride your body on

Deep inside me I know you can抰 hide me from harm

I抦 the secret that you bear

Born of anger and despair

Who will strangle me

Who will untangle my hair

Come to me I can see

Through the holes in your eyes

When I scream out in terror

You抮e the one by my side

Run to me strong and pure

As the monster抯 child

We抳e been captured for a lifetime

But we抮e free when we抮e wild

Sleep my little darling

Don抰

You

Cry

for mamma

She抯 all gone

Nightmare came and took her in his arms

Find your dark horse

And ride on your course

Through the storm

Lay me down you can see

Through the rain in my eyes

That I抳e no more to lose

And I抳e nothing to hide

Playing in midnight fields

Of dreams exiled

We are strangers in the city

But we抮e free when we抮e wild
