I close my door at night,

But they get in all right,

And she turns on the light.

I held her hands so tight,

'Cause words don't come out right,

And she sees things at night.

Me, I'm closer to the door,

I don't get scared no more,

But I don't know the score.

If I could hold them in my hand,

I'd make them understand.

I'm not a haunted mind,

I'm not a thoughtless kind.

If I could put them in a jar,

I know they wouldn't scar,

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.

I close my door at night,

But she gets in all right

So I turn on the light.

I held her hand too tight,

Too hard to make it right,

So I could sleep at night.

If I could hold them in my hand,

I'd make them understand.

I'm not a haunted mind,

I'm not a thoughtless kind.

If I could put them in a jar,

I know they wouldn't scar,

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.

I'd do it if I could,

I hope you know I would.
