Don’t turn the light off

I need my night light

The bright stars help me

Sleep through the night

Singing songs of youth

Don’t turn the light off

My heart aches to see

I want someone to love me

I need the light to see

Singing songs of adolescence

Don’t turn the light off

Then I can’t find my glasses

They hide away from me

Then the night passes

Singing songs of lost time

Don’t turn the light off

The night is dark

Tall trees terrify me

With wrinkled crinkled bark

Singing songs of old age

Don’t turn the light off

The end is near

What will happen to me

Without the light I can only fear

The song of death
