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've 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've 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
