can't you see me smilin'
that's me upon the silver screen
can't you see me lyin'
lyin' in my bed at night as i dream
in the misty moonlight
by the flickering firelight
and everything is alright
as long as i've got my nite lite
i get scared of the dark
i lose my bite and i lose my bark
i need a little beacon or spark
something to light my way
there's so many monsters to fight
coming out of my closet
when it's late at night
and everything is alright
just as long as i've got my nite lite
