Nocturne Lyrics by Sophie B Hawkins

Nocturne Lyrics

    nightmare bring me to the dawn
    i must ride your body on
    deep inside me i know you can’t hide me from harm
    i’m the secret that you bear
    born of anger and despair
    who will strangle me
    who will untangle my hair

    come to me i can see
    through the holes in your eyes
    when i scream out in terror
    you’re the one by my side
    run to me strong and pure
    as the monster’s child
    we’ve been captured for a lifetime
    but we’re free when we’re wild

    sleep my little darling
    don’t
    you
    cry
    for mamma
    she’s all gone
    nightmare came and took her in his arms
    find your dark horse
    and ride on your course
    through the storm

    lay me down you can see
    through the rain in my eyes
    that i’ve no more to lose
    and i’ve nothing to hide
    playing in midnight fields
    of dreams exiled
    we are strangers in the city
    but we’re free when we’re wild
