"Light A Candle" lyrics
Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle for where we're going
There's something ahead worth lookin' for
When the light of time is on us, we will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on
It's a chance to give new meaning to every move we make
Through the caverns and the caves where we come from
When the light of dawn is on us we will see what we can be
And the ancient ones can sleep an easy sleep
In the hallways of the ages, on the road to history
What we do now will always be with us
It's a chance to give new meaning to every move we make
In the caverns and the caves where we come from
Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle for where we're going
There's something ahead worth looking for
When the light of time is on us, we will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on
Light a candle in the darkness so others might see ahead
Light a candle in the darkness when you go
There's something ahead worth lookin' for
When the light of time is on us, we will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on
It's a chance to give new meaning to every move we make
Through the caverns and the caves where we come from
When the light of dawn is on us we will see what we can be
And the ancient ones can sleep an easy sleep
In the hallways of the ages, on the road to history
What we do now will always be with us
It's a chance to give new meaning to every move we make
In the caverns and the caves where we come from
Instead of cursing the darkness, light a candle for where we're going
There's something ahead worth looking for
When the light of time is on us, we will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on
Light a candle in the darkness so others might see ahead
Light a candle in the darkness when you go
