Frightened Child
Natalie Imbruglia · Left Of The Middle [1997]
I hear your silent scream
Deep in your private dream
Two ways to go from here
One way will bring you near
Fragile wish
Full moon
No rain
No shame
That distance still remains
More shades of grey to come
We've been through more than one
Close your eyes
Like a frightened child fragile in spirit
Like a wind blowing wild
No name you can give it
Like an infidel seeing the light for the very first time
No tricks
No slight of hand
Find somewhere safe to land before your walls were shaken
But now the whole thing's breaking and it makes you feel
Like a frightened child fragile in spirit
Like a wind blowing wild
No name you can give it
Like an infidel seeing the light for the very first time
Yes
You're right
What is right
Yes
It's night
I can tell
Yes
It shows
Yes
I know
You're a beautiful stranger to yourself
Deep in your private dream
Two ways to go from here
One way will bring you near
Fragile wish
Full moon
No rain
No shame
That distance still remains
More shades of grey to come
We've been through more than one
Close your eyes
Like a frightened child fragile in spirit
Like a wind blowing wild
No name you can give it
Like an infidel seeing the light for the very first time
No tricks
No slight of hand
Find somewhere safe to land before your walls were shaken
But now the whole thing's breaking and it makes you feel
Like a frightened child fragile in spirit
Like a wind blowing wild
No name you can give it
Like an infidel seeing the light for the very first time
Yes
You're right
What is right
Yes
It's night
I can tell
Yes
It shows
Yes
I know
You're a beautiful stranger to yourself
