I could run I could cry, I could plead I could say it's never gonna get any better and leave I could throw my hands up I could fall to my knees I could tell myself I'm strong enough to give all the love that I need But I still need you To ease my load Hold me when the lightning strikes Lead me home When I don't know which way is right Love me when it's hard, I promise that I'm not Leaving from your side And when I fall apart, promise in the dark You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight You'll be my nightlight I could count Every time that I've fallen Even when I'm in so deep It gets hard to see, you're still all in I've been lost by myself in the darkness Know that I can find my way Even on the days when it's hardest But I still need you To ease my load Hold me when the lightning strikes Lead me home When I don't know which way is right Love me when it's hard, I promise that I'm not Leaving from your side And when I fall apart, promise in the dark You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight, ooh You'll be my nightlight You'll be my nightlight
