Monsters - Acoustic

Lyrics

Oh, before they turn off all the lights
 I won't read you your wrongs or your rights
 The time has gone
 I'll tell you goodnight, close the door
 Tell you I love you once more
 The time has gone
 So here it is
 I'm not your son, you're not my father
 We're just two grown men saying goodbye
 No need to forgive, no need to forget
 I know your mistakes and you know mine
 And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
 So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
 Don't be afraid, it's my turn
 To chase the monsters away
 ♪
 Oh, well I'll read a story to you
 Only difference is this one is true
 The time has gone
 I folded your clothes on the chair
 I hope you sleep well, don't be scared
 The time has gone
 So here it is
 I'm not your son, you're not my father
 We're just two grown men saying goodbye
 No need to forgive, no need to forget
 I know your mistakes and you know mine
 And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
 So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
 Don't be afraid, it's my turn
 To chase the monsters away
 Sleep a lifetime
 Yes, and breathe a last word
 You can feel my hand on your own
 I will be the last one
 So I'll leave a light on
 Let there be no darkness, in your heart
 I'm not your son, you're not my father
 We're just two grown men saying goodbye
 No need to forgive, no need to forget
 I know your mistakes and you know mine
 And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
 So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
 Don't be afraid, it's my turn
 To chase the monsters away
