Little girl in your dress of snowy white
Get behind me, safe from creatures of the night
Long ago and far away, hunting my demons down
To make you a safer way, down
This dark and twisty road

Little girl, keep yourself upon the trail
If you stray, you'll become a cautionary tale
With these arms and with these fists, I'll keep you safe and sound
Through the forest and the mists, run down
This dark and twisty road.

Run little girl,
've got your back you're covered now
Go and run and hide yourself, you're safe
Run little girl,
've got your back you're covered now
Go and run and hide yourself, you're safe

Little girl, one day I'll give you away
Though I'll miss you, I can't ask you to stay
Your whole life until this day, I have protected you
If you'll need me on your way, I'll be around
This dark and twisty road

Run little girl,
've got your back you're covered now
Go and run and hide yourself, you're safe
Run little girl,
've got your back you're covered now
Go and run and hide yourself, you're safe
