[Verse 1] The whispers in morning about shadows of the wolves at night Black mountains with high fog and werewolves fright The village got mist and fog on streets too'night We can just whisper and hope no wolves takes kids tonight [Pre-Chorus] Keep your voice low Keep your door shut tight If the dark starts calling don't answer tonight [Chorus] Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains Hold your little ones close Hold your little ones close Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains We whisper and pray We whisper and pray [Verse 2] Boots by the window and nails in the wood Old men cross themselves like they know what they should Lanterns burn thinner when the moon cuts through Every dog in the village won't bark what it knew [Pre-Chorus] Keep your voice low Keep your door shut tight If the dark starts calling don't answer tonight [Chorus] Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains Hold your little ones close Hold your little ones close Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains We whisper and pray We whisper and pray [Bridge] If you hear claws on the stones don't run, don't run If you hear a voice in the mist stay where you are, son The dawn may come crawling through pale gray blue Till then we keep breathing and count what is true [Final Chorus] Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains Hold your little ones close Hold your little ones close Fog over black mountains Fog over black mountains We whisper and pray We whisper and pray
