Little child, be not afraid
The rain pounds harshly against the glass
like an unwanted stranger
There is no danger,
I am here tonight
Little child, be not afraid,
though thunder explodes and lightning flash
illuminates
your tear-stained face
I am here tonight
And someday you'll know
that nature is so
the same rain that draws you near me
falls on rivers and land,
on forests and sand
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
in the morning
Little child, be not afraid
though storm clouds mask your beloved moon
and its candlelight beams,
still keep pleasant dreams
I am here tonight
Little child, be not afraid
though wind makes creatures of our trees
and their branches to hands,
they're not real, understand
and I am here tonight
And someday you'll know
that nature is so
the same rain that draws you near me
falls on rivers and land,
on forests and sand
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
in the morning
For you know, once even I was a..
..little child, and I was afraid
but a gentle someone always came
to dry all my tears, switch sweet sleep for fears
and to give a kiss goodnight
Well now I am grown
and these years have shown
that rain's a part of how life goes
But it's dark and it's late
so I'll hold you and wait
'til your frightened eyes do close
And I hope that you'll know
that nature is so
the same rain that draws you near me
falls on rivers and land,
on forests and sand
makes the beautiful world that you'll see
in the morning
Everything's fine in the morning
The rain'll be gone in the morning,
but I'll still be here in the morning
