I hear a whisper in the night,
Tiny footsteps outta sight,
Something's moving down the hall,
Shadows dancing on the wall...
The doors creak open, the curtains sway,
I feel a chill, then I hear it say...
Ooooooh, Little Spookie, where do you hide?
Floating softly, side to side...
Are you a ghost, a trick of the light?
Or just a shadow in the dead of night?
My heart is pounding, I hold my breath,
A tiny giggle-oh, what's next?
A tapping sound upon the floor,
I see the closet crack open more...
The rocking chair starts to creak,
A tiny voice begins to speak...
Ooooooh, Little Spookie, where do you hide?
Floating softly, side to side...
Are you a ghost, a trick of the light?
Or just a shadow in the dead of night?
Then I see her, big bright eyes,
Laughing as she jumps inside!
No ghost, no ghoul, no creeping fright-
Just my baby in the pale moonlight!
Ooooooh, Little Spookie, I've found you now!
No more hiding, take a bow!
You're not a ghost, you're my delight,
My little daughter, my sweet nightlight!
Little Spookie, tuck you in tight,
No more scares, just dreams tonight...
