Steal Away Child
Elton John
[Verse 1] Steal away child into your dreams Where nothing is ever the way that it seems I gave you your life you gave me your trust I’ve no wish to hurt you but hurt you I must Steal away child turn down your light Steal away into the night [Verse 2] Steal away child to the land of the lies Where love lasts forever and hope never dies Sit safe for a place peaceful and calm Where no one and nothing can harm you Steal away child you’ll be alright Steal away into the night [Bridge] Once more goodnight one last goodbye Trying hard not to show how I’m making what it’s taking not to cry [Verse 3] Steal away child sleeping so still Our love is too precious for distance to kill But when you awake morning has come I won’t be the one you turn to I’ll do what I must before it gets light I’ll steal away into the night [Outro] Steal away child you’ll be alright Steal away into the night
