Lyrics
Light of Day – copyright © Chris MacLean 2000 (SOCAN)
So I saw you standing, holding pieces of your heart
You said I don’t know how to carry on, I don’t even want to start
Just want to hold you tight, hold you through this night
Until we reach the light of day
I look around there’s all this rubble
Where once there was a dream
Sometimes I wonder how it is that you don’t just break down and scream
But it doesn’t really matter, coz you’re doing what you must
And with a little luck, we’ll reach the light of day
Ooh ooh, oooh ooh, oohoo ah ah ah yah yah
You say you hate this and you’re really sorry
That I had to get tangled up in your troubled story
Hey baby that’s life
Sometimes joy and sometimes strife
You just hold on tight we’ll reach the light of day
We’re all standing on a stage, playing the same scene over and over again
From the time we’re born til we’re old
And we can’t remember when
Some lucky get it right
They learn to laugh at the night
And then go dancing, dancing to the light of day
Ooh ooh, oooh ooh, oohoo ah ah ah yah yah
Some lucky get it right
They learn to laugh at the night
And then go dancing, dancing to the light of day
Until the light of day (you dance, you dance)
Until the light of day ( you dance, you dance)
Until the light of day.
