[Pre-Chorus]
You're the night, Lilah
A little girl lost in the woods
You're a folktale
The unexplainable

[Chorus]
You're a bedtime story
The one that keeps the curtains closed
I hope you're waiting for me
'Cause I can't make it on my own
I can't make it on my own

[Verse 1]
It's too dark to see the landmarks
And I don't want your good luck charms
I hope you're waiting for me
'Cross your carpet of stars

[Pre-Chorus]
You're the night, Lilah
You're everything that we can't see
Lilah
You're the possibility

[Chorus]
You're the bedtime story
The one that keeps the curtains closed
And I hope you're waiting for me
'Cause I can't make it on my own
I can't make it on my own
[Saxophone Solo]

[Bridge]
Unknown the unlit world of old
You're the sounds I've never heard before
Off the map where the wild things grow
Another world outside my door
Here I stand, I'm all alone
Driving down the pitch-black road
Lilah, you're my only home
And I can't make it on my own

[Chorus]
You're a bedtime story
The one that keeps the curtains closed
I hope you're waiting for me
'Cause I can't make it on my own
I can't make it on my own

[Outro]
You're the [?] can falling off the wall with the door that slams at the end of the hall
You're the [?] silence
[?]
Stars
See the sun in the yard
