Strum
If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream
(no top )
And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream
(no top )
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star
I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever
(no top )
And though I cant guarantee theres nothing scary
hiding under your bed
I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever
(no top )
And never leave til I leave you with a sweet dream in your bed

I'm gonna watch you shine
Gonna watch you grow
Gonna paint a sign
So you'll always know
As long as one and one is two
There could never be a father
Who loved his daughter more than I love you
Trust your intuition
Its just like goin fishin
(no top )
You cast your line and hope you get a bite
But you dont need to waste your time
Worryin about the market place
Try to help the human race
(no top )
Struggling to survive its harshest night
