will be a light There will be a light There will be There will be There will be a light There will be a light I've been running Ever since Ever since I was a child Some call it free Some just call it wild There will be There will be There will be a light There will be a light There will be There will be There will be a light There will be a light Let the warmth of my love Dry away all your tears Fear not for I am with you I will fear not, I will fear not with you here There will be There will be There will be a light There will be a light There will be There will be There will be a light There will be, there will be a light There will be There will be There will be a light There will be a light ************************************************************************
