Lights in the night

49 11 11
                                    

Blink, blink, blink!
The lights come on
One by one then -
Darkness has gone

Stand proud do the lamposts
Glowing like eyes of a feline friend
A sense of company
The warm light sends

Then come the stars
Peeking from clouds shyly
A sweet guardian
Out in space to guide me

Lights from a TV screen
In a dimly lit room
Outside, flashes from shooting stars
That go zoom! Zoom!

Beams from cars
Cruising slowly by
Shining brightness, inside of you
That you'll find if you try

All of the lights
In the bright, luminous night
