James Blunt Monsters Song Lyrics by James Blunt
Oh, before they turn off all the lightsI won’t read you your wrongs or your rightsThe time has goneI’ll tell you goodnight, close the doorTell you I love you once moreThe time has goneSo here it is
I’m not your son, you’re not my fatherWe’re just two grown men saying goodbyeNo need to forgive, no need to forgetI know your mistakes and you know mineAnd while you’re sleeping I’ll try to make you proudSo, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?Don’t be afraid, it’s my turnTo chase the monsters away
Oh, well, I’ll read a story to youOnly difference is this one is trueThe time has goneI folded your clothes on the chairI hope you sleep well, don’t be scaredThe time has goneSo here it is
I’m not your son, you’re not my fatherWe’re just two grown men saying goodbyeNo need to forgive, no need to forgetI know your mistakes and you know mineAnd while you’re sleeping I’ll try to make you proudSo, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?Don’t be afraid, it’s my turnTo chase the monsters away
Sleep a lifetimeYes, and breathe a last wordYou can feel my hand on your ownI will be the last oneSo I’ll leave a light onLet there be no darkness, in your heart
But I’m not your son, you’re not my fatherWe’re just two grown men saying goodbyeNo need to forgive, no need to forgetI know your mistakes and you know mineAnd while you’re sleeping I’ll try to make you proudSo, daddy, won’t you just close your eyes?Don’t be afraid, it’s my turnTo chase the monsters away
