There’s a storm lamp on the table, throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if you’re able, on a storyteller’s night
From the poorhouse, chimes indifferent, seven towers, seven sisters
Every black heart walks the distance, on a storyteller’s night
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god’s children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll come through wind and rain
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
There’s a chill wind at your back door and the fire cracks on the damp floor
You hear footsteps but you’re not sure, on a storyteller’s night
See the night sky super nova, chase the cold moon passing over
Start the dragon’s fire to smoulder, on a storyteller’s night
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god’s children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll come through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
Oh, keep your night-light burning - I’ll come through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
(Solo de guitarra)
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all god’s children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappears like faded lines
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll come through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
Keep your night-light burning - oh, I’ll come through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll see through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll come through wind and rain, yeah!
Keep your night-light burning - I’ll be with you once again
