Time passing us by
Dawn with the breaking, quick with the waking
In with the light
And you, you needed the night
You're heavy with dreams that haven't seen life yet
No, it's not trite

I won't let you out
No, no, I won't do it
I won't let you down
What I know to be true
And I won't let you out
Not out of my, not out of my, not out of my

I'm sometimes undone
I'm restless and rushing, anxious and cussing
At everyone, hmmm
But oh, you're the one made of oak
You're strong through the beating of every season
And now it's my turn to be strong for you

Oh, and I won't let you out
No, no, I won't do it
I won't let you down
What I know to be true
And I won't let you out
Not out of my, not out of my, not out of my heart

Ooooh, ooooooh, ooooh, ooooh

Time passing us by
Dawn with the breaking, quick with the waking
In with the light
