Lights

Lyrics

I heard the knock on my door
I heard the ring of the bell
I got the letter, but I couldn't go
So many thoughts in my head
So many places to be
So many faces that I long to see

Standing in front of me tonight
The lights will take me where I long to be
Just like a thousand nights before
Somebody said to me
Why do you do this to you
Why not sit back and relax
Go to the islands and forget it all

Lyrics continue below...

Slow down, you're moving too fast
You seem afraid it won't last
Take my advice, go straight and settle down
Thank you for caring
But tonight the lights will take me where I long to be
Just like a thousand nights before
I can't explain, it gives me something

(Give me the lights, precious lights)
(Give me lights)
Give me my hope, give me my energy
(You can turn the wrong into right)
(Precious lights)
Illuminate me, won't you let me play
Let me play
Won't you, won't you let me play

(Give me the lights, precious lights)
(Give me lights)
Give me my hope, give me my energy
(You can turn the wrong into right)
(Precious lights)
Illuminate me, won't you watch me play
Won't you watch me play

(Give me the lights, precious lights)
(Give me lights)
Shine on upon me, give me energy, whoa
(You can turn the wrong into right)
(Precious lights)
Illuminate me, carry me away

(Carry me) carry me away
(Carry me, carry me)
(Carry me, carry me)
(Carry me, carry me) carry me away!
(Carry me, carry me) oh-oh
(Carry me, carry me)
