AFRAID OF THE DARK
My story has never been told
Will it rise when I grow old
Or be buried under some tree
Giving life to what I'll never be
Is my hair already grey
Am I the one who never may
See the light that I once knew
Only 'cause I cared for you
Only 'cause I cared for you
Oh let it shine somewhere
Oh let it be somewhere
Please don't let it fall apart
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
Is the light already gone
Oh my Lord, but I'm not done
Let me finish what I began
Before I sink in the sand
It already touched my chin
Oh I never felt that thin
Will I ever rise again
And become that shining man
And become that shining man
Oh let it shine somewhere
Oh let it be somewhere
Oh let it shine somewhere
Oh let it be somewhere
Please don't let it fall apart
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
And I sure can understand
How you're letting down my hand
But remember how I have fought
For our life with every thought
Oh let it shine somewhere
Oh let it be somewhere
Oh let it shine somewhere
Oh let it be somewhere
Please don't let it fall apart
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
'Cause I'm afraid of the dark
