I Need the Light
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I believe that there is light
For the world is dark tonight
Storms are raging, like a dog they bite
And it feels like winter
But I believe, the winter
The youth can show us what they've learned
Your generation will crumble and burn
Cause' this is winter
So I need the light
Oh I need the light
I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite, yeah
I need the light to come into my life
We can make it through the night
Holdin' on, hold on, so tight
Take my hand till the morning light
We'll make it through winter
'Cause I believe this storm will break
Youth will triumph, yes, they'll make mistakes
But I know they'll win, whatever it takes
Cause this is winter
'Cause I need the light
Oh I need the light
I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite, yeah
I need the light to come into my life
I need the light
I need the light
I need the light
I need the light
'Cause I need the light
Oh I need the light
I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite, yeah
I need the light to come into my life
'Cause I need the light
Oh I need the light
I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite, yeah
I need the light to come into my life
