Here in the dark the dusty light is fading
The lonely night of waiting
Is passing the point and missing the mark
Be the light or love will fade away
Be the light or love will fade away
Here in the shade the leaves of change are falling down
Slowly trying to reach the ground
To touch the earth and turn around
Be the light or love will fade away
Be the light or love will fade away
Out of the darkness
Suddenly my body can take a breath
I'm coming out of the darkness
Finally my soul can take a rest
Here in the light a lazy mist is lifting
And the sands of time are slowly shifting
Into the glass with the hours that pass
Be the light or love will fade away
Be the light or love will fade away
Out of the darkness
Suddenly my body can take a breath
I'm coming out of the darkness
Finally my soul can take a rest
