Like a child |
|
You always landed on your feet |
|
Running wild |
|
Paid caution, little mind |
|
Playing in the middle of the streets |
|
With all the time in the world |
|
A world so wide |
|
You could wander it for miles |
|
Going where you never been |
|
But now |
|
Deary, it's the middle of the night |
|
and how |
|
shadows grow under the street lights in a |
|
Strange Town |
|
with strangers all around |
|
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town |
|
If you could fly |
|
could you find your own way home |
|
up so high |
|
over that old rainbow |
|
But what about the great unknown |
|
you might find where the sidewalk ends |
|
Imagine your surprise |
|
to the land where the wild things are |
|
Little Lamb, so far away from home |
|
But now |
|
Deary, it's the middle of the night |
|
and how |
|
shadows grow under the street lights in a |
|
Strange Town |
|
with strangers all around |
|
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town |
|
But now |
|
Deary, it's the middle of the night |
|
and how |
|
shadows grow under the street lights in a |
|
Strange Town |
|
with strangers all around |
|
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town |
|
Uh Oh (Now you've done it!) |
|
Oh Oh (Here, kitty, kitty, kitty!) |
|
Uh Oh |
|
Uh Oh (Ooh, look at me!) |
|
No! |
|
But now |
|
Deary, it's the middle of the night |
|
and how |
|
shadows grow under the street lights in a |
|
Strange Town |
|
with strangers all around |
|
how can you be found if no one knows you in a Strange Town |
