Nightmares (Special Version) Lyrics

It's just a dream and dreams aren't real

The things you see or the way you feel

But every night when the light goes out and I can't see

The terrors of the night find their way to me

I can feel them near me, spirits of the night

I can see them moving, running from the light

Standing by my bed, watching through the night

Reaching for my hand

Maybe they're just as scared as I am

There's nothing there so don't be scared

Just close your eyes and go back to sleep

The morning's coming, it's almost here

So close your eyes and forget your fear

There's nothing there so don't be scared

Just close your eyes and go back to sleep

The morning's coming, it's almost here

So close your eyes and forget your fear

It's just a dream and dreams aren't real

The things you see or the way you feel

But every day when the sun is out and shines on me

The darkness of the night is just a memory

I can feel them near me, spirits of the night

I can see them moving, running from the light

Standing by my bed, watching through the night

Reaching for my hand

Maybe they're just as scared as I am

There's nothing there so don't be scared

Just close your eyes and go back to sleep

The morning's coming, it's almost here

So close your eyes and forget your fear

There's nothing there so don't be scared

Just close your eyes and go back to sleep

The morning's coming, it's almost here

So close your eyes and forget your fear

The darkness spreads like fire, it's burning up the sky tonight

A growing mist shrouds the light

The rain is pouring down, it fills my room with haunting sounds

I feel my heart begin to pound

Lightning flashing, thunder crashing, now comes the hour of my despair

Crimson eyes, a deadly stare

Why must I see it every night, such an evil appetite

Sing the children of the night

The new day spreads like fire, it burns away the dark of night

Feel the warm and healing light

Another nightmare has been fed, I'm growing weary, eyes are red

These dreams are getting to my head

But I won't let these fantasies steal another night of sleep

I pray The Lord my soul to keep

Why must I see it every night, such an evil appetite

Sing the children of the night
