Empty faces wander on the street
And everyone I meet, is splitting at the seams
Try to talk and try to make some sense, when everything's past tense
No way when there's no means
And the light goes on, the light goes on
The light goes on, the light goes on
When even good intentions go astray
It's hard to find a way, to make your life worthwhile
Hard to find someone who'll understand, who won't make dark demands
And won't put me on trial
And the light goes on, the light goes on
The light goes on, the light goes on
You never know if love lost could come back
Pull the white from black, evermore
Maybe I'm dreamin', but dreams can come true
It's all up to you, evermore
And the light goes on, the light goes on
The light goes on, the light goes on
And the light goes on, the light goes on
The light goes on, the light goes on
