[Verse 1]
Call out in the middle of the night (Night, night)

Fall out in the cold starlight (Light, light)
I can save you if you do
[Pre-Chorus]
You will never walk alone
You can always reach me
You will never ever walk alone
[Chorus]

[Chorus]

(Call me) Call me Mephistopheles
(Call me) When you feel all alone
Just call me Little Sunshine

(Call me) When you feel all alone
Just call me Little Sunshine
(Call me) Little Sunshine
(Call me) Call me Mephistopheles
(Call me) When you feel all alone
Just call me Little Sunshine
