A little light

I light a little light at night to help me find my way
Because at night my sight's not right
Unless I light a little light at night
That I don't need in the day.

But in the day I'll just say that the sun is bright
So I don't light a little light that I light at night
For in the day I need some shade to hide the light
That helps my sight and is so bright
That's not there at night to help me find my way.

So I must find a little tree that hides the sun for me
Cause shade is made in the day and that way
I get enough light from the sun that's bright
But not too bright in the shade that's made
So I don't need to light a light to find my way in the day
And I can play during the day and I have sight at night
That's just right. Cause I light a little light at night.
