"The Light" lyrics

Tell me why
I can feel it so clearly
I wanna know why
Why the sound of mystery
Will you help me find the key?
Then we'll open up the final lock
Put an end to this race against the clock
We can find it
We can find it

If you would only tell me why
I still hold you so dearly
What a soulless mystery
Won't you help me find the key
That'll open up the secret doors
Reveal all of our secret flaws
Traveling with the tumbleweed
Our voices calling out in need
Can you hear it?
I can hear it

It's telling you to hold on a little longer (A little longer)
It sure takes time to grow stronger
Hold on with all of your might (All of it)
It takes a little darkness to enjoy the light

Tell me why
It still feels like you're right here next to me
I wanna know why
Why to solve this mystery
Won't you lead me to the key
That'll open up the gate ahead
Never leave us without our daily bread
Take back all the things we said
So we can write a brand new page instead
Let them read it
Let them read it

Deep within a wishing well
A voice is calling out for help
Can you hear it?
Open up and I'm sure you'll hear it
You will hear it

It's telling us to hold on a little longer (A little longer)
It sure takes time to grow stronger
Hold on to what you know is right
It takes a little darkness to enjoy the light

Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
Tell me why
