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 a small voice we'd hear her remark
"Mommy and Daddy, can I sleep here with you?
'Cause 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, ain't 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
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark"
Jeannie was always afraid of the dark
And we could never understand why
'Cause we looked after Jeannie with the very best of care
'Cause Jeannie was our only child
Perhaps it was death she was so afraid of
'Cause it took her one dark, stormy night
I think we always knew that Jeannie would never grow old
'Cause 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 of night, well, there's always a light
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
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 a small voice we'd hear her remark
"Mommy and Daddy, can I sleep here with you?
'Cause 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, ain't 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
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark"
Jeannie was always afraid of the dark
And we could never understand why
'Cause we looked after Jeannie with the very best of care
'Cause Jeannie was our only child
Perhaps it was death she was so afraid of
'Cause it took her one dark, stormy night
I think we always knew that Jeannie would never grow old
'Cause 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 of night, well, there's always a light
'Cause Jeannie's afraid of the dark
Our Jeannie's afraid of the dark
