When
day is done and lights are out
A chill is in the air
And stormy clouds have gathered 'round the moon
A flash of white breaks through the night
And thunder's rolling near
There's something you should always know is true
You don't have to have a nightmare
Just to cuddle up with me
You needn't wait until it's late
And shadows cross the floor
Come to me day or night
And know that dark or light
I always have a candle shining
In my heart for you
CHORUS
Now lay your head down, darling
And glide away to sleep
Wherever your dreams may take you
May a lighted candle guide you on your way
Whenever you are stuck in bed
A fever on your brow
Or tummy ache is keeping you at home
When no one comes and no one calls
You're grumpy and you're sad
You never need to think you're on your own
You don't have to feel you're lonely
Just to cuddle in my arms
You needn't wait until the day
No friends have come around
Come to me any time
And know that you will find
I always have a candle shining
In my heart for you
CHORUS |
