The sun was creeping through the curtains
And the coffee had gone cold on the side
Faded linen in the dryer
That I hung outside to breathe in the wind
Memories faded from the night before
Drowned out by the chorus of birds in the garden next door
Woke at sunrise and the air was cool
And the sun mocked the moon and the stars
With the air of a fool
Felt myself for the first time
Felt myself and I'm feeling alright (alright)
On my own for the first time
No longer anxious when I turn out the light
Felt myself for the first time
Felt myself and I'm feeling alright (alright)
On my own shit for a change
Stepping out into the night
And I'm not frightened anymore
Of monsters under my bed
And the night terrors that haunt me won't
Get stuck in my head
Cuz the nightmares came and went
And what was left in the morning then
Was my head on your chest
Wind was blowing leaves around
And the rain was getting me down
But the sun came just in time
And you hand held tight in mine
I was jealous i was insecure
But in his arms I felt so sure
There'll be rocky roads ahead
There'll be no crying anymore
And I'm not frightened anymore
Of monsters under my bed
And the night terrors that haunt me won't
Get stuck in my head
Cuz the nightmares came and went
And what was left tin the morning then
Was my head on your chest
