<b>Long Shadows</b> by <i>Josh Ritter</i><br />I’m not afraid of the dark

We’ve been here before

Fallen on hard times, honey

We’ve fallen on swords

But if a long shadow

Falls across your heart

I’ll be right here with you

I’m not afraid of the dark

I’m not afraid of the dark

When the sun goes down

And the dreams grow teeth

And the beasts come out

Cast their long shadows

Every time that they start

I’ll be right here with you

I’m not afraid of the dark

Out on the hills the hounds are baying

Our on the moor the foxes run

To stay alive until the light has faded

Then pray for light that seems so long to come

I’m not afraid of the dark

So if the stars get scarce

And you reach for him

And honey he’s not there

Just a long shadow across your heart

You can reach for me

I’m not afraid of the dark

I’m not afraid of the dark

When the sun goes down

And the dreams grow teeth

And the beasts come out

Cast their long shadows

Every time that they start

I’ll be right here with you

I’m not afraid of the dark
