Light The Way lyrics

Written by Kevin Bacon



"It`s about having the strength to re-define your life`s work. A follow-up to `Guess Again.`" KB



Emma Rae`s riding on a north-bound train

Spilling all that pain

On the plains of Dover

Emma Rae`s crying from a hot cell phone

She said she never felt so alone

This time the dream is over



Surely this is her darkest hour

I`ve even heard her talk about a higher power

Deep in her heart comes a tiny voice

And it says "hold on momma,

`Cause you`ve got one last choice"



Bring your dreams down to the river

And let the water wash all your dreams away

When the night comes, it will deliver

Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way



Old man standing on a soap box

He`s wearing wool socks

On the hottest day all year

Old man preachin` to the handful

With a head full

He says "the end is surely near"

Now, who among you even cares?

They`re turnin` circles into squares

But deep in his heart comes a tired voice

And it says "hold on daddy,

You`ve got one last choice"



Bring your dreams down to the river

And let the water wash all your dreams away

When the night comes, it will deliver

Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way

Light the way, light the way

Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way



Light the way, oh light the way

Through the darkness, your heart is gonna light the way
