"Lights" lyrics

When the lights are finally gone
Your spirit still shines on and on
We share the dream we used to dream
I see your face in a glancing gleam

When we finally have returned
Is there a lesson to be learned
That nothing lasts for more than haze
So why live on in such a pace

Now, now that you're gone
Your light shines on
And we'll never hesitate no more
Day follows night
We still feel forlorn
Till we lose ourselves in your beautiful light

Where the winds blow wild and cold
Where our story's still untold
There is a place without a light
There is all hope long out of sight
But still our road leads straight ahead
And when our thoughts are more than sad
There is your glimpse from far away
That turns this night (Turns this night)
Into a day (Into a day)

Now, now that you're gone
Your light shines on
And we'll never hesitate no more
Day follows night
We still feel forlorn
Till we lose ourselves in your beautiful light

When the lights turn on we're craving to begin
A thousand souls rush in committed to join in
And finally we hear your chant
It sounds so vigorous and free
Please never change
You are the ones, our light you're meant to be

We'll never wander alone in the darkness
For you are united and strong at our side
Embrace and entwine our road leads us forward
As we journey onward to the end of all time

Now, now that you're gone
Your light shines on
And we'll never hesitate no more
Day follows night
We still feel forlorn
Till we lose ourselves in your beautiful light

Now that years have passed we meet again
Memories all that ever will remain
We smile while we think back to these precious years
A smile that wipes and dries away all tears for good
