He'll be enough to make you cry
He'll be enough to open your eyes
To all the little things that make this world better

He'll give you love you never knew
He'll give his heart only to you
and he'll make your life...all better

So when he comes to you in the middle of the night
Because he's scared to be alone in the dark
Tell him everything is going to be alright

(Chorus):
Because I will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky who watches over you
Because i will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky who watches over you

You'll tell him everything you know
You'll tell him all the places you'll go
So you can be a good man and make this world better

You'll give him all the love you have
Even when he makes you so mad
Keep in mind..that he made your life better

So when he comes to you when he's so confused
Because he wants to give his heart to another
You'll tell him everything's gonna be just fine

(Chorus):
Because I will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky who watches over you
Because i will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky who watches over you

Ooh and when the years are going by too fast
And when hes growing up to be big and strong
Know his love for you will last...
even when he doesn't say it to your face
Even when you have to put him in his place
Know that he's a love that nothing in this world can ever replace

(Chorus):
Because I will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky who watches over you
Because i will be your light
I will be your night
I will that star in the sky
