Dead of night, baby
We're finally alone
I'll pull down the shades

If you unplug the phone

Put on some music

Marvin Gaye's real nice
Once we get settled
I'll turn out the lights


(CHORUS)
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


It might be scary
Until your eyes adjust

Don't fear the shadows
Me, you can trust


I'm at my best
In a pitch black room
Hold on tight, baby

You'll feel the power soon

(CHORUS)


I'll be there to hold you
Don't be afraid of the dark


You might tremble
You might shake

Scream out loud
You may even break


I know which moods
Suit you right
You'll beg for more

You'll forget about the night

Don't be afraid of the dark

Baby, no, no
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, no, no


Don't be afraid of the dark
Baby, no, no

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

Hey, baby

Baby, no no no
Please, baby
I'll be there to hold you

Don't be afraid of the dark
