Little girl lost

In a forest of dreams.

It's a dark old wood

And it's damp with dew.

Hoot owl hoots

For a moment it seems

Something big and cold

Just got ahold of you.

Just when everything gets scary,

Daddy's come 'round for his darlin' again.

Hold my hand with your little fingers.

Daddy's loving arms gonna gather you in.

Ain't no way the Bogeyman can get you,

You can close your eyes, the world is gonna let you,

Your daddy's here and never will forget you,

I will take you home.

I will take you home.

Gonna carry you back home

In my arms.

I will take you home.


Long is the road

We must travel on down.

Short are the legs

That will struggle behind.

I wish I knew for sure

Just where we're bound,

What we will be doin'

And what we're gonna find.

Wherever we go, there will be birds to cheer you

Flower to color in the fields around.

Wherever we go, I'll be right here near you

You can't get lost when you're always found.


Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you

Your daddy's gonna be right here beside you

If your fears should start to get inside you

I will take you home.

I will take you home.

Gonna carry you back home

In my arms.

I will take you home
