Far, far from the light
Hear the night creatures call
With a cold breath they howl
All the hollow hours they're calling you
I'll be there
No matter what you're going through
In the dark I care
I'm holding on, I'm hoping on
It's still the same old me inside

Back to the light
Back to the streets that are
Paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land where the
Sunshine heals my soul

Deep deep in the night
When the world fills with tears
And the wind blows, colder and colder it grows
And the fire dims with the same old fears
I'll be there
Though maybe you don't hear me babe
I still care
No matter when, I'll still be there
When you make it to the other side

Back to the light
Back to the streets that are
Paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land where the
Sunshine heals my soul

On and on
Searching for a clearer view
Winning and losing an inner war
Wonder what we do it for
Though the road seems never ending
Hold on to the hope I'm sending through

I'll be there
No matter where you're going to
In the dark I care
I'm holding on - believe it -
We'll be walking in the light
'Cos there'll be no place left to hide

Back to the light
Back to the streets that are
Paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land where the
Sunshine heals my soul.
