sometimes at night i can sense a presence
feel a danger
i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
there's someone beside me, i think it must be my guardian angel
i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
and it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
somewhere in the darkness, black dogs bark
and insects crawl and creep
she'd come in from the shed when the lights went off
and the door left ajar
i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
she'd fly around the room on a broom
to the pulse of my frightened heart
oh i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
and it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
somewhere in the darkness black dogs bark
and insects crawl and creep
i often hear a whisper in the trees
like someone's in there looking out
and watching me
sometimes at night i can sense a presence
feel a danger
i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
but there's someone beside me, i think it must be my guardian angel
i'm a child inside, still afraid of the dark
and it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
yes it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
oh it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
yes it's a long 'oul night when you can't get to sleep
