"King Of The Lost Boys" lyrics - SARA BAREILLES

Oh, honey, don't you cry
The absence of the light
Even the sun must rest his weary eyes
So let the night wrap stars around you
Weigh the anchor, and sail into the night's joy
You can be king of the lost boys

[Chorus:]
Come, now
Honey, don't you cry, no
Honey, don't you cry
In time you will be stronger
Don't you worry 'bout the why
Those answers come in time
So leave your heart to wander
Leave your heart to wander, ooh

[Post-Chorus:]
Don't, don't cry (Don't, don't)
Don't, don't cry (Don't, don't)
Don't, don't cry (Don't, don't)
Don't, don't cry (Don't, don't cry)

Shadows begin their game
These faces with no names
Whisper words in tongues
Make your ears ring
The monsters circle 'round, eyes upon you
Raise your head, and let them hear your heart's choice
You are the king of the lost boys
(Don't, don't cry)

[Chorus:]
Come, now
Honey, don't you cry, no
Honey, don't you cry
In time you will be stronger
Don't you worry 'bout the why
Those answers come in time
So leave your heart to wander (Don't cry)
Leave your heart to wander
Leave your heart to wander

Give me a kiss goodbye
And go explore the night
You know the way, you can come back anytime
And if the fear comes, heavy on you
Make some noise, you're king of the lost boys

[Chorus:]
Come, now
Honey, don't you cry, no
Honey, don't you cry
In time you will be stronger
Don't you worry 'bout the why
Those answers come in time
So leave your heart to wander (Don't, don't cry)
Come, now
Honey, don't you cry, no
Honey, don't you cry
In time you will be stronger (Don't cry)
Don't you worry 'bout the why
Those answers come in time
So leave your heart to wander (Don't, don't cry)
Leave your heart to wander
Leave your heart to wander

[Outro:]
Don't, don't cry, don't, don't cry (Ooh)
Don't, don't cry, don't, don't cry
Don't, don't cry, don't, don't cry (Ooh)
Don't, don't cry, don't, don't cry
Don't, don't cry, don't, don't cry (Mmm...)
