Afraid of the Light

Call Me Albert

Blues / Blues-Rock.

I know why you hide your smile

I know why you don’t stay with me awhile

I know why you close your eyes

I know why you hypnotise

I can tell that you want to hide

I can tell that you’re hurting deep down inside

I can tell that you have your fears

But I can tell that you’ve had your fill of shedding tears

Ooh, caught you crying in the rain

Ooh, caught you crying once again

And if you lose your will to fight

When you’re lost and alone, hope can make it right

And if you feel that your heart is stone

Even in the shadows, you’re not on your own

Built your walls to keep you safe

But you need someone who can rebuild your faith

Built your walls, but you’ve nothing to fear

Loved you from a distance, now I want to hold you near

Ooh, caught you crying in the rain

Ooh, caught you crying once again

INSTRUMENTAL

I feel the beating of your heart

Even through the distance, even though we’re miles apart

I feel the longing in your dreams

I can hear your whispers, I can hear your screams

You’re your father’s daughter, your mother’s child

It’s in your voice, it’s in your smile

And if I sing you to sleep at night

When you wake in the morning, would you still be afraid of the light ?
