[Verse 1]
I've been looking for a reason
I've been holding on for more
I want something to believe in
'Cause I've lived like this too long

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the light shine down on me
Down on me
Oh, to speak
Salvation cries aloud for me
She waits to see it closely
And down by the river
Mmh, all for that place we've all been fighting on
Await the tales of encore
And soulful resolution

[Chorus]
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way

[Verse 2]
I've been waiting years to hold you
But we keep on passing by
I walk the streets in silence
In silence, searching through the night
[Pre-Chorus]
Let the light shine down on me
Down on me
Oh, to speak
Salvation cries aloud for me
She waits to see it closely
And down by the river
Mmh, all for that place we've all been fighting on
Await the tales of encore
And soulful resolution

[Chorus]
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way
Forcing my way

[Bridge]
I'm tryna find the words to say
To send me on my way to you
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, to speak
Salvation cries aloud for me
She waits to see it closely
And down by the river
Mmh, all for that place we've all been fighting on
Await the tales of encore
And soulful resolution

[Chorus]
Oh, but we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way
Oh, we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way out
But we can see clearly now
I'm forcing my way
