Late at Night

I close my door at night

But they get in all right

And she turns on the light

I held her hands so tight

'Cause words don't come out right

And she sees things at night

Me, I'm closer to the door

I don't get scared no more

But I don't know the score

If I could hold them in my hand, I'd make them understand

I'm not a haunted mind, I'm not a thoughtless kind

If I could put them in a jar, I know they wouldn't scar

I'd do it if I could, I hope you know I would

I close my door at night

But she gets in alright

So I turn on the light

I held her hand too tight

Too hard to make it right

So I could sleep at night

If I could hold them in my hand, I'd make them understand

I'm not a haunted mind, I'm not a thoughtless kind

If I could put them in a jar, I know they wouldn't scar

I'd do it if I could, I hope you know I would

I'd do it if I could, I hope you know I would

I'd do it if I could, I hope you know I would

I'd do it if I could, I hope you know I would
