Moonflower
Abbie Gamboa
What do you do when you're all grown up?
The heart of a child, but you gotta be tough
Scared to death to be alone
Feeling around for a hand to hold
Why did I start to think
I can't walk if I can't see?
When did I forget to need You?
I will let myself be weak
A vulnerable dependency
Strong enough to let You lead me
Through the dark
I wanna be where You are
Even through the dark
I wanna be where You are
What do you do when the darkness falls
And nobody thought to leave the light on?
Well, I don't really like this place
But I will trust You anyway
Take my hand and lead the way
Into the dark
I wanna be where You are
Even in the dark
I wanna be where You are
And they tell you to grow up
To stop being scared
But what do you do when
You still want your dad there?
I know that I'm older
But it's still the same
The moment I need You
You're coming my way
I heard about a garden
Somewhere south of London
Where moonflowers are hanging overhead
And though they're lovely in the light
The gardener said: Come back tonight
The darkness makes the fragrance rise
