On a Storytellers Night Live by Magnum (Band) Lyrics
[Intro]
Sing it with me
[Verse 1]
There's a storm lamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if you're able
On a storyteller's night
From the poor house chimes indifference
Seven towers, seven sisters
Every black heart walks the distance
On a storyteller's night
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all God's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappear like faded lines
[Chorus]
Keep your nightlight burning
Come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning
And I'll be with you once again
Yeah, c'mon, onе more time
[Verse 2]
Therе's a chill wind at your back door
And the fire cracks on the damp floor
You hear footsteps, but you're not sure, what do you say?
On a storyteller's night
See the night sky supernova
Chase the cold moon passing over
Start the dragon's fire to smoulder
On a storyteller's night, yeah, c'mon
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all God's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappear like faded lines
[Chorus]
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll see you in the rain, yeah
Keep your nightlight burning
And I'll be with you once again, yeah
[Instrumental Bridge]
Sing, woah-oh-oh
Sing, woah-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, for we are God's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappear like faded lines
[Chorus]
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning
And I'll be with you once again
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll see you in the rain, yeah
Keep your nightlight burning
And I'll be with you once again
[Outro]
Keep your nightlight burning
Yeah, I'll come through wind and rain, yeah
Keep your nightlight burning
I'll be with you once again, yes we will, alright, yeah
Woah
God bless ya, everybody
Sing it with me
[Verse 1]
There's a storm lamp on the table
Throwing shadows to the gable
And you swallow if you're able
On a storyteller's night
From the poor house chimes indifference
Seven towers, seven sisters
Every black heart walks the distance
On a storyteller's night
[Pre-Chorus]
Try to sleep on your pillow and dream
Sleep, all God's children to keep
Though we all lose track of time
Disappear like faded lines
[Chorus]
Keep your nightlight burning
Come through wind and rain
Keep your nightlight burning
And I'll be with you once again
