When you walk into the edge of those
Dark and lonely woods
And when I ask how was your day
And you answer, "Not so good"
And when nothing seems to be working out
Quite the way it should, I will shine the light
And when the skies up above you fill
With gray and stormy clouds
And there's not a single face you know
In the maddening crowd
When you know that you don't make your way
But you just can't see how, I will shine the light
I will shine the light, I will shine the light
I will hold you in my arms
Until everything's alright, I will shine the light
And when your worries, they won't let you sleep
And rob you of your days
And you've looked in all directions
But you still you can't find your way
Oh, when you just need someone to remind you
That it's all gonna be okay, I will shine the light
I will shine the light, I will shine the light
When you're staring down your demons
Weighing in your darkest night, I will shine the light
Sometimes we jump into the great unknown
Sorrows, we all will have to walk alone
But waiting there in the end is a heart that calls you a friend
That's me, clapping the loudest, welcoming you home
So when your heart is heavy like a stone
From carrying its load
And you look into the mirror
And see someone you don't know
Oh, when the shadows are closing in on you
Like a hand around your throat
I will shine the light, I will shine the light
When you've given into your fears
When you've lost your will to fight
Let me know what I can do
Let me try to make it right
And I will shine the light, I will shine the light
