[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Watching over me
Watching over me
