lyrics

I Can See Light

You sit by the window child at your breast
Stayin' warm in the sunshine the place you love best
Lord knows I'm a dreamer a tree climbin' child
But one could do worse you know, tho' its been a long while

I can see light
I can see light
'Til the dark won't defeat me tonight

Caught by the wind like an old newspaper blowin' down a tired two lane
You know how it feels spinning your wheels
in the rain
In the rain

So I'll buy you curtains and an old brass bed
'cause I know you've been hurtin' I know you’ve been sad
But you never gave up on me you never gave in
Stood right beside me through the nights without end

I can see light
I can see light
Til the dark won't defeat me
The dark won't defeat me
The dark won't defeat me
Tonight...
