You are my monster

The grass is maybe green
The sky is part way blue
The days are just too bright
The birds are singing, too

You are my monster
That’s lurking in the darkness for me
You are my monster
That’s waiting there for me

The air has no allure
The sunlight chastens me
As you drag around your cage
You’re on the loose. You’re free

You are my monster
That’s lurking in the dark for me
You are my monster
That’s waiting there for me

I wear and walk the miles
To when life becomes worthwhile
It might take many years
To forget your evil smile

You are my monster
Looming in my garden green
You are my monster
That’s stalking there for me

When your happy times have passed
And snow begins to fall
Don’t stay away too long
Don’t forget to call

You are my monster
That sniffs the air for me
You are my monster
Forever there for me
