Patty Griffin - Peter Pan Lyrics

Patty Griffin Lyrics

"Peter Pan"

Hey, Peter Pan
I'm going home now
I've done all I can
Besides I'm grown now

I'll think of you
All painted with the night
You sit and watch from somewhere
As one by one the lights go out

I wrote a note
To tell you how you matter
When the rain came down
All the letters scattered

And washed away
Drifted off to never
Where you'll be safe
From me now forever

I believe you now when
You say that this will hurt
So I don't have to go and
Play with you in the dirt now

Hey, Peter Pan
I'm going home now
I'm all grown up
You're on your own now

I'll think of you
All painted with the night
You sit and watch from somewhere
As one by one the lights go out
