The sun is hiding from the shadow
Of an old oak tree
The dark of night is knocking
On my door and bringing mystery

A little girl is walking
With a candle in her hand
She looks for secrets
In her castle of white sand
Ooh , mmm, little girl

I recall when I was small
I was a kid who stood alone
I didn’t want reality
So I dreamed all on my own

I would leave my house at night
With a solitary friend
A broken doll, I had from way back when

The children fear, the clicking of night
The grow ups fear, the pain of the light
You are the past that I ride

Touch me little girl
Love me little girl ooh
Touch me little girl
Bring me back my girl ooh
Touch me little girl
Kiss me little girl ooh
Oh girl, my girl

Now I’m standing here alone
And the past is far away
The crazy world, is not for me
So I have to find my own

The children fear, the clicking of night
The grow ups fear, the pain of the light
You are the past that I ride

Touch me little girl
Love me little girl ooh
Touch me little girl
Bring me back my girl ooh
Touch me little girl
Kiss me little girl ooh
Oh girl, my girl
