lyrics

you wait for me while i dress and i brush my hair.
i don’t want to leave, ‘cause there’s trouble that waits out there,
but you’ve already got your coat on, and you’ve got the car all warm.
you don’t seem scared or worried about the coming storm.

so hold my hand. i’ll hide my head.
if we walk slowly, i’ll keep moving
and i’ll stay with you if you stay with me.

the rain is throwing daggers, and the thunder screams.
the clouds are trying to trap us in the dark, it seems.
the lightning wants to hit me, and i know his aim is awful sharp.
if i get lost, i’ll be helpless in the misty dark.

so hold my hand. i’ll hide my head.
if we walk slowly, i’ll keep moving
and i’ll stay with you if you stay with me.

i’m scared on my own, but i’m not alone.
