Down Under Shadows
[Verse]
Windows sealed tight and the door's locked too
Flick of the lamp shadows dance for you
Favorite chair creaks as you settle in
Blanket's close to catch that chill within
[Verse 2]
Wind howls outside like a ghostly wail
Heartbeats quicken like an endless tale
Australia nights can be dark and deep
Guard your dreams while you drift to sleep
[Chorus]
Shadows grow tall in the dying light
Secrets whisper in the dead of night
Under Southern skies your heart's on hold
Blanket's handy for when blood runs cold
[Verse 3]
Crickets chirp in a haunting refrain
Streetlights flicker like they're feeling strain
Midnight stories weave a web so tight
Keep your courage in this Aussie night
[Verse 4]
Distant thunder rumbles through the air
Miles away but you still feel the scare
Eyes stay open though you try to rest
Australia's night puts your fear to test
[Chorus]
Shadows grow tall in the dying light
Secrets whisper in the dead of night
Under Southern skies your heart's on hold
Blanket's handy for when blood runs cold Blood runs cold |
