"Oh Child" lyrics

"Oh Child"

I fell asleep last night
Counting troubles in my head
I had a dream that I
Was on my own with no one else
And my hands were full of the tears I was crying
How do I tell the shadows to get behind me?

I had it in my soul
The answer all along

Oh child, gotta lift your hopes high
Even through the cold nights
Sun come up in no time
Oh child, looking at tomorrow like
Troubles gonna roll by
You just gotta hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child

I've been wondering
Where my heart got lost
How do I get it back
To how it always was?
I've been asking myself
Where did the fire go
The fire I always kept
Deep down in my bones

I had it in my soul
The answer all along

Oh child, gotta lift your hopes high
Even through the cold nights
Sun come up in no time
Oh child, looking at tomorrow like
Troubles gonna roll by
You just gotta hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child

Through the fire and the smoke
I'm found in the light
Through the highs and the lows
I'm found in the light
Through the bruised and the broke
I'm found in the light
Don't let go
I'm found in the light
I'm found in the light
I'm found in the light
I'm found in the light

Oh child, gotta lift your hopes high
Even through the cold nights
Sun come up in no time
Oh child, looking at tomorrow like
Troubles gonna roll by
You just gotta hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
Hold tight, oh child
