Come closer,
little dreamer Let the curtain hide
the door
You brought a heart for bargaining
I've handled hearts before
The world is full of promises
That glitter, then they rust
So leave your shining wishes here
And place them in my trust
I know a thousand shortcuts
I know which strings to pull
You call it desperation
I call it beautiful
Bring me your thunder,
bring me your rain I'll turn
your trouble into champagne Trade me
your daylight,
your doubt,
your fear
I'll make the impossible disappear But
every miracle leaves a mark in
the dark
And every little spark knows who
struck the spark
Your prince may praise your courage
Your friends may cheer you on
But courage needs a careful hand
When all the maps are gone
I'll dress your doubt in velvet
Put a crown upon your plea
Then send you dancing through the
night With one small debt to
me No need for tears,
my darling
No need to plead or pray
A door can look like freedom
When I decide
the way
Bring me your thunder,
your silver,
your song I'll make you feel
you've waited not long
Give me your secret,
your name,
your vow
I'll give you everything,
almost somehow But every miracle leaves
a mark in the dark
And every little spark knows who
struck the spark
Tick-tock, the bargain's breathing
Hush-hush, the ink is bleeding
Round and round the ribbons fly
Smile, my dear,
and don't ask why If the
moon should turn to morning If
the roses lose their red
You'll remember who was smiling When
you got exactly what you knew
Bring me your thunder,
your rain I'll make a crown
from every chain Trade me your
daylight, your doubt,
your fear I'll make the impossible
disappear
Sing for the shadow,
dance for the spark Every bright
little wish has a beautiful mark
I'll conduct the melodies of harmonic
storms And leave you dancing through
the thunder's arms
