Green Light

There's a little green light on the ceiling in my room
I think that it's a star
It comes to me when I close my eyes
To take me somewhere far

I know now that it's the world I visit
Once I fall into sleep
The keeper of my every thought,
My nightmares, and my dreams

Then suddenly it flashes red
And I am now aware
That the red light means distress
I'll help because I care

"I'm coming," I try to tell the star
But it cannot hear
So I try to fall asleep
But I only fear

"What if there's an evil there
"That's attempting to win the fight?"
But part of me is also thrilled
 "I could be the hero tonight!"

And so at last I fall asleep
To find my world somewhere
But I will never, ever tell you
What I have found in there
