Monsters by
James Blunt

Oh,
before they turn off all the lights
I won't read you
your wrongs or your rights
The time has gone
I'll tell you goodnight,
close the door
Tell you I love you
once more
The time has gone
So here it is
I'm not your child, you're not my mother
We're just two grown women saying goodbye
No need to forgive,
no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, mommy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away

Sleep a lifetime
Yes, and breathe a last word
You can feel my hand
on your own
I will be the last one
So I'll leave a light on
Let there be no darkness,
in your heart
But I'm not your child,
you're not my mother
We're just two grown women saying goodbye
No need to forgive,
no need to forget
I know your mistakes
and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, mommy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
