Light Lyrics
NATALIE
We need some light.
First of all, we need some light.
You can't sit here in the dark.
And all alone, it's a sorry sight.
It's just you and me.
We'll live, you'll see.
DAN
Night after night,
We'd sit and wait for the morning light.
But we've waited far too long,
For all that's wrong to be made right.
DIANA
Day after day,
Wishing all our cares away.
Trying to fight the things we feel,
But some hurts never heal.
Some ghost are never gone,
But we go on,
We still go on.
And you find some way to survive
And you find out you don't have to be happy at all,
To be happier alive.
NATALIE
Day after day,
Give me clouds, and rain and gray.
Give me pain, if that's what's real.
HENRY & NATALIE
It's the price we pay to feel.
DAN & DIANA
The price of love is loss,
DAN
But still we pay.
DAN & HENRY
We love anyway.
GABE
And when the night has finally gone.
And when we see the new day dawn.
We'll wonder how we wandered for so long, so blind.
The wasted world we thought we knew,
The light will make it look brand new.
So
ALL
Let it
Let it
Let it
Let it
Let it
Shine, shine, shine.
Day after day (day after day),
We'll find the will to find our way.
Knowing that the darkest skies will someday see the sun.
DAN
When our long night is done,
DAN & NATALIE
There will be light.
DIANA
(There will be light.
There will be light)
ALL
There will be light.
When we open up our light.
Sons and daughters, husbands, wives.
Can fight that fight.
There will be light.
There will be light.
There will be light.
There will be light.
