Well you'll know what it is when you've found it
It hits you right between the eyes
And you won't find another way around it
''cause the dark's standing in the light
Well it shortens the range of your vision
So you can't even see your hands
And it stands on one leg and just listens -
Don't talk ''cause it understands.
You need help, I'm coming
Over the hill, to set you free
You need help, hold on now
Gonna save you if you wait for me.
Well you won't hear a shout or a whisper
When it moves it'll make no sound
But you'll know what it is when it hits you
By the time that you reach the ground
You need help, I'm coming
Over the hill, to set you free
You need help, hold on now
Gonna save you if you wait for me.
[repeat]
When it's past four o'cIock in the morning
And the moon begins to wane
Try to run if you get any warning
Watch out here it comes again.
Do you hear?
It's getting near
It's coming close
Don't look now
It's standing by your shoulder
You need help - here I come
Hold one 'cause here I come.
[chorus.]
