When the sun comes up 

I shall wake and tell 

All of those who will listen. 

 

Of what happened that night 

When I stayed awake 

Watching the moon make its' rounds. 

 

 

That night is a time 

When the stress of day 

Escapes from the soul. 

 

 

That all who still wake- 

They can find their rightful place- 

And stay 'til the sun returns. 

 

When the sun comes up 

I shall wake and tell 

All of those who will listen. 

 

Of the story of my adventure 

The fear that left me alone- 

returning not 'til I was ready. 

 

When the sun comes up 

I shall wake and tell 

All of those who will listen. 

 

That the dark may bring fear 

To those unaware 

Of the joy of the shadows. 

 

 

That the day might bring angst 

To those who don't know 

That night takes the dread away. 

 

 

I want them to hear 

That night takes the doubts 

And gives them to the winds.
