Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I could run
I could cry, I could plead
I could say, "It's never gonna get any better", and leave
[Verse 2]
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"
[Verse 3]
But I still need you
To ease my load
Hold me when the lightning strikes
Lead me home
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
And when I fall apart
Promise in the dark
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 6]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You'll be my nightlight
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 7]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You'll be my nightlight)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 8]
(You'll be my nightlight)
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
I've been lost
By myself, in the darkness
Know that I can find my way even on the days when it's hardest
[Verse 11]
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
[Verse 12]
Love me when it's hard
I promise that I'm not
Leaving from your side
[Verse 13]
And when I fall apart
Promise in the dark
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 14]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You'll be my nightlight
Ooh-ooh-ooh
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 15]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You'll be my nightlight)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
You'll be my nightlight
[Verse 16]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You'll be my nightlight)
[Verse 17]
(You'll be my nightlight)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
(You'll be my nightlight)
