He made the night a little brighter

Wherever he would go

The old lamplighter

Of long long ago

His snowy hair was so much whiter

Beneath the candle glow

The old lamplighter

Of long long ago

You'd hear the patter of his feet

As he came toddling down the street

His smile would hide a lonely heart you see

If there were sweethearts in the park

He'd pass a lamp and leave it dark

Remembering the days that used to be

For he recalls when dreams were new

He loves someone who loves him too

Who walks with him alone in memory

He made the night a little brighter

Wherever he would go

The old lamplighter of long long ago

Now if you look up at the sky

You'll understand the reason why

The little stars at night are all aglow

He turns them on when night is here

He turns them off when dawn is near

The little man we loved of long ago

He made the night a little brighter

Wherever he would go

The old lamplighter

Of long long ago
