If I could catch you like a fish
If I could weave a web of time
I would catch you in a moment
And in that moment for forever you'd be mine

If I could hunt you like a wolf
I would stalk you through the night
I’d be hiding in the shadow, now
Where you can't see me
Until the moment is just right

I would be your boogieman
Hiding underneath your bed
Well, now, I would watch you sleeping, yeah
Lovely dreaming
I would hold your hand
I would be your boogieman
Yes, I would be your boogieman

I would track you, trap you, bait you
I would find you and sedate you
I'd tag you
I’d cage you
Then I'd rename you
But you in captivity
Is too heartbreaking for me
I'd like to trap you, track you and keep you
But I'll catch you
And release you
Because I can
Because I can
Because I can
