In darkened hours you slipped away,
You thought that you could run
You made your break before the day
You think you can fool the sun?

Foolish child, why would you run?
The night is dark, the day is done
Where will you go off to hide?
I will find you anywhere you bide

The ancient forest hides many secrets
You think that you are bold?
Just step inside and you will get
Trapped til Death is told

Foolish child, did you not know?
The way is shut wherever you go
Where will you go off to hide?
I will find you anywhere you bide

The ribbons of dawn are appearing now
I hold your last lifeline
If you don't come, I don't know how
I'll hold you to be mine

Foolish child, come back to me
Mine forever I wish you'll be
Where will you go off to hide
I'll find you anywhere you bide

I find you staggering; alone and lost
You're cold and worn
The dawn is melting the frost;
Come into my arms to be warm

Foolish child, I love thee so
Even if you try to go
How, now, in this night,
Could you spread your wings and take flight?

Foolish child, did you not know?
A mother's love shall never slow
