  • Here in the dark, it's funny how I never feel alone
    Do you?
    Here in the shadows, away from the light
    This darkness under which we hide
    Like a ghost I cannot see
    You're the shadow behind me

    You'll be my night light there when I go to sleep
    You'll be my night light, baby, when I dream
    Under the moonlight shining on the sea
    You'll be my night light watching over me

    Behind the glass, he'll never leave
    Lets me in when I don't deserve to be
    Strong when I am weak
    I wish he caught how this heart soars
    Shadow man, will you come for me?
    Like a ghost I cannot see
    You're the shadow behind me

    You'll be my night light there when I go to sleep
    You'll be my night light, baby, when I dream
    Under the moonlight shining on the sea
    You'll be my night light watching over me

    Map the way for us to go
    Tell me where to follow
    I'm happy to be told, happy to be told
    I'm taking it apart for you to see
    I could be falling to pieces, so let me fall
    Let me fall into your shade

    You'll be my night light there when I go to sleep
    You'll be my night light, baby, when I dream
    Under the moonlight shining on the sea
    You'll be my night light watching over me
