[Verse 1: Kate Rusby]
In the deepest, darkest hour
Where the strongest all will cower
And it feels like it's so long 'til mornin'
I know your weary head needs rest
And we both know you've done your best
So I'll hold your hand until the day comes dawnin'

[Verse 2: Kate Rusby]
I know the world's been cruel of late
And your head can't bear the weight
And it feels like it's so long 'til mornin'
But together we are bound
So I will keep you safe and sound
And I'll hold your hand until the day comes dawnin'

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
Don't worry, let the night go driftin' by
And tomorrow you can fly

[Verse 3: Kate Rusby, Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
In the dark night you are lost
Counting stars to count the cost
And it feels like it's so long 'til mornin'
So I will catch the moon's bright beams
To guide you gently to your dreams
And I'll hold your hand until the day comes dawnin'
[Verse 4: Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
When there's stillness all around
And your heart's a deafening sound
And it feels like it's so long 'til mornin'
I will stay with you, old friend
So you can heal and you can mend
And I'll hold your hand until the day comes dawnin'

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
Don't worry, let the night go driftin' by
And tomorrow you will fly

[Verse 5: Kate Rusby, Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
Now it's time to make your peace
Into the night your fears release
And it feels like it's so long 'til mornin'
And we will claim the night for ours
And we won't see the dark for stars
And I'll hold your hand until the day comes dawnin'

[Chorus: Kate Rusby & Damien O'Kane]
Don't worry, let the night go driftin' by
And tomorrow you will fly
And tomorrow you will fly
