Lyrics Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Hush Little Voices

I lie awake, they've taken hold

The whispers on the wind pursue my restless soul

But it's alright, these ghostly things

If I can't drown them out then I'll invite them in

There's a storm in me

It never goes away

No matter what I try

But in the morning light

The shadows ebb away

They never rest at night

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Won't you sleep for a little while?

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Why are you never satisfied?

Not long ago you were my prey

But I'm hunted now every night and day

The tables turned, you're in control

This fever in my mind will surely take its toll

There's a storm in me

It never goes away

No matter what I try

But in the morning light

The shadows ebb away

They never rest at night

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Won't you sleep for a little while?

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Why are you never satisfied?

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Won't you sleep for a little while?

Hush little voices, don't you cry

Mama's gonna sing you a lullaby

Hush little voices in my mind

Why are you never satisfied?
