Little girl lost in a forest of dreams   It's a dark old wood and it's damp with dew   Hoot owl hoots for a moment it seems   Something big and cold has got a hold of you      Just when everything gets scary   Daddy's come 'round for his darlin' again   Hold my hand with your little fingers   Daddy's loving arms are gonna gather you in      Ain't no way the bogeyman's can get you   You can close you eyes, the world is gonna let you   Your daddy's here and never will forget you   I will take you home, I will take you home   Gonna carry you back home in my arms   I will take you home      Long is the road we must travel on down   Short are the legs that will struggle behind   I wish I knew for sure just where we're bound   What we will be doin' and what we're gonna find      Wherever we go, there will be birds to cheer you   Flowers to color in the fields around   Wherever we go, I'll be right here near you   You can't get lost when you're always found      Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you   Your daddy's gonna be right here beside you   If your fears should start to get inside you   I will take you home, I will take you home   Gonna carry you back home in my arms   I will take you home
