Only Shadows

Think there's a monster in your closet
 Even if you lock it
 Think you can't stop it
 No matter how hard you try
 Well listen here sleepy head
 Close your eyes and go to bed
 With good thoughts in your head
 Tell you why it's gonna be alright
 [Chorus]
 They're only shadows
 They're only shadows
 They're only shadows
 In the night
 You walk down the street
 A creepy feeling starts to creep
 And suddenly you feel your feet
 Moving faster til they fly
 You look all around
 You look up and you look down
 But still there's nothing you have found
 And I will tell you why
 [Chorus]
 There are lots of things that may go bump in the night
 But if you use your brain you will be alright
 That scary noise is just the faucet dripping
 And the thump thump thump is the dog's tail wagging
 The thing you saw out of the corner of your eye
 Was just a shadow in the night
 You can't have shadows without the light
 No hello without goodbye
 No laughter 'til you cried
 That's just part of life
 The great compromise
 You are truly wise
 If you see with your own eyes
 [Chorus X2]
