Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Dead of night, baby

We're finally alone

I'll pull down the shades

If you'll unplug the phone

[Verse 2]

Put on some music

Marvin Gaye's real nice

Once we get settled

I'll turn out the lights

[Verse 3]

Don't be afraid of the dark

Don't be afraid of the dark

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

[Verse 4]

It might be scary

Till your eyes adjust

Don't fear the shadows

Me, you can trust

[Verse 5]

I'm at my best

In a pitch black room

Hold on tight, baby

You'll feel the power soon

[Verse 6]

Don't be afraid of the dark

Don't be afraid of the dark

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

[Verse 7]

You might tremble

You might shake

Scream out loud

You may even pray

[Verse 8]

I know which moves

Suit you right

You'll beg for more

You'll forget about the night

[Verse 9]

Don't be afraid of the dark

Baby, no, no

[Verse 10]

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

[Verse 11]

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark, no

[Verse 12]

Don't be afraid of the dark

Baby, no, no

[Verse 13]

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

[Verse 14]

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark

[Verse 15]

Hey, baby, no, no, no, no, no

Please, baby

I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark
