Night So Still

I turn on the hallway light I am up again at night I've got my window seat Got a light that shines down to the street In the day I think I can But at night I think again Got these worries on my mind And I'll organize them one more time. And if I hold the night so still I know I'll be alright until The morning Oh, the darkness makes me smaller And the world seems that much taller Sometimes I worry I'll get what I hoped And I'll have to stand up and sing the songs I wrote But if I hold the night so still I know I'll be alright until The morning Oh, a walk would do me good But I don't trust the neighborhood I could call my West Coast friends And say "hey, I'm up again" I let my mind run through the house Pretty soon I'm tired out Empty my pockets, take off my shoes In sleep I will join you. Can you hold the night this still So I will be alright until The morning?
