lyrics

Let’s play a game, let’s hide and let’s seek
In the dusty corners and under the sheets
Oh, but don’t go far
can you help me find brother, he’s probably under the bed

Peter are you hiding
tell me what you’re finding
are you playing with your toys
or those lost boys
Peter come on out now
cause it’s almost nightfall
daddy’s gone away
you don’t have to be scared
anymore

Daddy hit mummy, now peter won’t speak
stares into the corners, he can’t sleep
oh he won’t understand
why when he looks for his brothers, he won’t ever find them again

Peter are you hiding
tell me what you’re finding
are you playing with your toys
or those lost boys
Peter come on out now
cause it’s almost nightfall
daddy’s gone away
you don’t have to be scared
anymore

Never grow up it’s a trap don’t you see
peter wants to run away, he says he’ll be free
oh but where would you go
for turn after turn, we all have to learn to grow old

Peter are you hiding
tell me what you’re finding
are you playing with your toys
or those lost boys
Peter come on out now
cause it’s almost nightfall
daddy’s gone away
you don’t have to be scared
anymore

Let’s visit mummy in the cemetery
she’s with john and michael now they’ve all gone to sleep
oh to die young
and with angels in hand they can fly and they’ll never land

Peter are you hiding
tell me what you’re finding
are you playing with your toys
or those lost boys
Peter come on out now
cause it’s almost nightfall
daddy’s gone away
you don’t have to be scared
anymore
