Natalie:
We need some light.
First of all,
We need some light.
You can't sit here
In the dark,
And all alone,
It's a sorry sight.
It's just you and me.
We'll live.
You'll see.
Dan:
Night after night,
We'd sit and wait
For the morning light.
But we've waited far too long
For all that's wrong
To be made right.
Diana:
Day after day,
Wishing all our cares away.
Trying to fight the things we feel,
But some hurts never heal.
Some ghosts are never gone,
But we go on.
We still go on.
And you find some way to survive.
And you find out you don't have
To be happy at all,
To be happy you're alive.
Natalie:
Day after day,
Give me clouds, and rain, and grey.
Give me pain if that's what's real
Natalie & Doctor Madden:
It's the price we pay to feel.
Doctor Madden & Diana:
The price of love is loss
Doctor Madden:
But still we pay
Doctor Madden & Dan:
We love anyway...
Gabe:
And when they night has fin'ly gone,
And when we see the new day dawn,
We'll wonder how we wandered for
So long, so blind.
The wasted world we thought we knew
The light will make it look brand new.
All:
So let it
Let it
Let it
Shine!
Shine!
Shine!
Day after day,
We'll find the will to find our way,
Knowing that the darkest sky
Will someday see the sun
Dan:
When our long night is done...
Dan & Natalie:
There will be light
Dan, Diana & Natalie:
There will be light.
All:
When we open up our lives,
Sons and daughters,
Husbands, wives
And fight that fight
There will be light.
There will be light
There will be light
There will be light!
