I Saw Your Light
I was a long lost soul
I was a burnt out case
I felt my heart grow old
I wore a stranger’s face
I built a wall so high
I built a gulf so wide
I saw my life go by
On the other side
I wasn’t looking for a miracle
Just hoping for relief
But you gave me something to believe
I saw your light
And i was changed, I was changed
I saw your light
And nothing is the same
Maybe all of us are weak
Maybe love is fast asleep
In the middle of an endless night
But I saw your light
I’ve come a long, long way
I’ve walked a crooked road
And there was hell to pay
And there were miles to go
I thought I’d lost my nerve
I thought I’d lost my spark
And life had thrown a curve
And I was in the dark
I wasn’t looking for a miracle
Just hoping for relief
But you gave me something to believe
I’ve come a long, long way
I’ve walked a crooked road
And there was hell to pay
And there were miles to go
I thought I’d lost my nerve
I thought I’d lost my spark
And life had thrown a curve
And i was in the dark
I was a long lost soul
I was a burnt out case
I felt my heart grow old
I wore a stranger’s face
I built a wall so high
I built a gulf so wide
I saw my life go by
On the other side
I’ve come a long, long way
I’ve walked a crooked road
And there was hell to pay
And there were miles to go
I thought I’d lost my nerve
I thought I’d lost my spark
And life had thrown a curve
And I was in the dark
