My Baby Is Afraid Of Sharks
Herman Düne Lyrics

My baby's scared of the dark.
My girlfriend is afraid of the dark.

She says the night is full of monsters.
She thinks that the dark contains many monsters.

But when I press my body against hers.
But when I embrace her tightly.

I kiss her goodnight and I count to four.
I kiss her goodnight and count to four to ease her fear.

My baby's not scared of the dark any more.
She's not scared of the dark anymore.

My baby's afraid of fire.
My girlfriend is scared of fire.

She sees visions of flames and intensities*.
She imagines seeing flames and intensities.

But when I call her name it makes her heart beat.
But when I call her name she feels better.

She sees waves of water break'in onto the shore.
She pictures waves breaking on the shore.

My baby doesn't fear no fire, no more.
She's not afraid of fire anymore.

My baby's scared of thunder.
My girlfriend is afraid of thunder.

She hates it when there are storms at night.
She dislikes storms at night.

But when I hold her in my arms real tight.
But when I hug her tightly.

She goes back to sleep and starts to snore.
She falls asleep and snores.

My baby's not scared of thunder anymore.
She's not afraid of thunder anymore.

And then she's like David**, Come here!
And then she says David, come here.

And stay with me, for a minute.
And stay with me for a moment.

Take away my fear and take me where it is quite!
Remove my fears and bring me somewhere peaceful.

David, Come here.....and sing something easy.
David, come here and sing something soothing.

Whisper it in my ear, make my place a safe place.
Whisper it in my ear and make me feel safe.

And my baby she's scared of strangers.
My girlfriend is scared of strangers.

Because once she was hit with a baseball bat.
Because she was attacked with a baseball bat.

But when I'm with her in her flat.
But when I'm with her at her apartment.

She doesn't even bother putting a lock on the door.
She doesn't even lock the door.

My baby's not scared of strangers anymore.
She's not afraid of strangers anymore.

And my baby, she doesn't like cars.
My girlfriend doesn't like cars.

Because she thinks they're a nuisance in this town.
She thinks cars are a nuisance in this town.

But when I drive her around.
But when I drive her around in the car.

She doesn't mind riding shotgun.
She doesn't mind being a passenger.

My baby thinks that driving......it's fun!
She now finds driving fun.

And my baby she's afraid of sharks.
My girlfriend is afraid of sharks.

She always thinks she saw a fin.
She always thinks she sees a shark fin.

But when I tell her It's a dolphin!
But when I tell her it's a dolphin instead.

She comes back swimming faster then an alligator!
She quickly swims back to shore unafraid.

My baby's not afraid of sharks anymore.
She's not afraid of sharks anymore.
