Sarah Mclachlan - Monsters lyrics

When we were young There were always creatures lurking under the bed A thousand-year-old dragon lived deep in the lake And he said don't be afraid, so you dove in He seemed so sweet and lovely He made you laugh and made you forget about the rain Showed you new tricks on guitar Hidden talents that erases the pain And don't you know that There's a wolf stalking in sheep's clothing Tells me he's the real thing Think what your life would be missing If you didn't have him to sing To sing about Three headed monsters, they want your money Wan to be in the picture, be your friend They fill your pool with alligators Are they all just jokers or are they cruel? They light up when they see you Like there's no where else that they'd rather be, than by your side Then they promise you the stars But they're really just along for the ride And don't you know that There's a wolf stalking in sheep's clothing Tells me he's the real thing Think what your life would be missing If you didn't have him to sing To sing about Is it the sparkle in their eyes Or the knowledge of the ways of the world The way they kiss, the way they hold you Has made you blind to the fangs and the fire And there's a wolf stalking in sheep's clothing Tells me he's the real thing Think what your life would be missing If you didn't have him to sing To sing about
