Alison Krauss & Union Station Follow

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight
Shade is dark, cool and languid for life or love
Safe in shadows, that's never stark as the daylight
As the daylight

When I was just knee high my momma told me, never try
To be someone that I am not yet over time I had forgot
The wandering child, so lost at play
He's found himself but he can't find his way
In the daylight, oh, the daylight

Ooh, daylight
Ooh, daylight

Life is short, and there's no turning back the time
Fragrant meadows and rocks to climb in the daylight

Lessons lived is a lesson learned in the daylight
In the daylight

I miss the forest shade you took me there
The promise I made to never leave the dark so deep
Safe and soothing, yet I fear as I recall and now reflect
I see it's safer to connect, to the daylight
Oh, the daylight

Ooh, daylight
Ooh, daylight

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight
Of the day

Daylight falls and I'm lost in the big parade
Hold my hand, darling, I'm afraid of the daylight
Shade is dark, cool and languid for life or love
