Flashlight

Somewhere in the darkness
Hiding away from the cold wind’s blowing
Deep in the silence
Deep in the heart of a never-knowing
You could be a flashlight
Or a candle dancing on the breeze
As bright as the floodlight
As clear as the hook in a sweet serenade
But you’ll never know it
How bright you shone for me tonight
My poor little flashlight
I turn you on when the sun goes down on me
Somewhere in the darkness
Buried in the silence of a snowstorm
I see a little glimmer
Shimmering a vacuum of my memory
Be my little flashlight
Be the spotlight on the lonely stage
Moonlight on water
As clear as the hook in a sweet serenade
Oh, my little flashlight
Shine your light on everything
Live, little spotlight
You’re brighter now than anything
Brighter than anything
Somewhere in the darkness
Shines a little light on a blue horizon
Under the covers
Under the light of a thousand colors
Be my little flashlight
My shadow falls against the wall
See a little starlight
You found me now and you heard my call
You still little flashlight
Be my friend
Be my friend
Before the dawn
I’ll hold you inside me
Till the moon has gone and the sunlight comes
Till the sunlight comes
Till the sunlight comes
Till the sunlight
Till the sunlight comes
