Her two little feet

would come running into

Our bedroom almost every night

Her soft little face

would be wet from her tears

And her little heart pounding with fright

She'd hold out her arms

then she'd climb in beside us

In her small voice we'd hear her remark

Mommie and daddy

can I sleep here with you

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark

One day in the summer

we took some flowers

To place on some old family graves

Jeannie said

mommy is it dark in the ground

Oh Daddy I'd be so afraid

Then she looked up

at her daddy and me

And said something

that broke both our hearts

She said

when I die please don't bury me

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark

Jeannie was always afraid of the dark

And we never could understand why

Because we looked after Jeannie

with the very best of care

Because Jeannie was our only child

Perhaps it was death

that she was so afraid of

Because it took her

one dark stormy night

I think we always knew

that we'd never see Jeannie grown

Because it seemed

she was destined to die

But on Jeannie's grave

we placed an eternal flame

That glows and never loses its spark

And on the darkest night

there's always a light

Because Jeannie's afraid of the dark

Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
