Everyone says goodnight... Then the house gets quiet... So I watch... The light under my door... I count the stars outside my room Until my eyes grow slow The crack that's always on my wall Looks bigger than before I pull my blanket to my chin And cuddle Teddy tight I know this is my bedroom... It just... Feels different... At night... The bathroom's only six small steps... Until it's time for bed... Then somehow... It feels much further... I keep my eyes... Upon the floor... Watching... The light under my door... As long as I can see it... I know... I'm not alone... Please don't turn... The hallway light... Off yet... The jumper hanging on my chair Was only clothes today Now every time I look at it It doesn't look the same I hold my teddy close to me Until my breathing slows He never has to say a thing... Somehow... He always... Knows... I tell myself... Don't look... Then look... Anyway... [Chorus] I keep my eyes... Upon the floor... Watching... The light under my door... Every little house sound Feels louder than before... Please leave... That little light... A little more... Footsteps... Cross the landing... The light... Slips away... I hold my breath... Until... It finds... My door... I keep my eyes... Upon the floor... Watching... The light under my door... Morning always... Finds my room... Exactly... How I remember... The light... Under my door...
