Afraid of the Dark

Come and tell me a story
Back when you were a kid
You were queen of the island
All the things that you did

Show me all of the pictures
The house on the lake
All the kings and royals
And all the friends that you made

She said: Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters under my bed every night
Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

Always looking out for me
Always seeing my best
You'd be proud of my story
Now I'm writing the rest

I remember the bedroom
At the end of the hall
I'll be walking beside you
Till the end of it all

She said: Tell the ones you love, you love them
Turn your minutes into moments
Don't be scared to give away your heart

But I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters under my bed every night
Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night like the stars

I'm still afraid of the dark
Still scared of my shadow
Still looking for monsters under my bed every night
Oh, I wish you were right there
To fight off the nightmares
You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark

You were the night light on a dark night like the stars
I'm still afraid of the dark
