[Verse 1]
I can remember when
I was down in Alabama
My heart-strings broken again

[Verse 2]
Somebody had the news
She was a three-time loser
I had to choose her to win

[Bridge]
And every night was a lonely night
I just didn't feel right
I was searchin' for the inner light

[Verse 3]
I still recall the time
I was a high-night flyer
A rainbow rider

[Verse 4]
Shakin' the body down
Easy women
My head's still swimmin' now

[Bridge]
Everyday I was up by three
It was easy for me
Never knew I couldn't see
[Pre-Chorus]
We still go back
Trying it one more time
I still go back
Following this heart of mine

[Chorus]
I go down there
Hoping she just won't lie
She just don't care
Talkin' 'bout the inner light

[Pre-Chorus]
Still we go back
To give it one more try
I go back
Following this heart of mine

[Chorus]
I go down there
Hoping that she just won't lie
She just don't care
Talkin' 'bout the inner light

[Outro]
(Talkin' 'bout the light)
Talkin' 'bout the inner light
(Talkin' 'bout the light)
I'm talkin' 'bout the inner light
