The Grateful Dead — I Will Take You Home Live at Knickerbocker Arena March 1990

[Verse 1] 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 around for his darling again Hold my hand with your little fingers Daddy's loving arms are going to gather you in [Chorus] Ain't no way the Boogeyman can get you You can close your eyes, the world is going to let you Your daddy's here and he 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 [Verse 2] Long is the road We travel on down Short are the legs That will struggle behind I wish I knew for sure Just where we were bound What we will be doing And what we're going to 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 [Chorus] Ain't no fog that's thick enough to hide you Your daddy's going to be right here beside you If your fears should start to get inside you I will take you home I will take you home Going to carry you back home in my arms I will take you home
