Intro

Verse 1

 When you walk into the edge of those

 dark and lonely woods, and when I ask how was your day

 and you answer not so good,

 and when nothing seems to be working out,

quite the way it should; I will shine the light.

Verse 2

 When the skies up above you fill,

with grey and stormy clouds.

 And there's not a single face you know,

 in the maddening crowd.

 When you know that you don't make your way

but you just can't see how. I will shine the light.

Chorus

I will shine the light.

I will shine the light.

I will hold you in my arms,

 until everything's alright.

I will shine the light

Verse 3

 When your worries, they won't let you sleep,

 and rob you of your days..

 And you've looked in all directions but you

still can't find your way.

 When you just need someone to remind you that it's

all gonna be ok, I will shine the light.

Chorus

I will shine the light.

I will shine the light.

 When you’re staring down your demons

 waiting in your darkest night

I will shine the light

.

Bridge

Sometimes we jump into the great unknown.

Sorrows we all will have to walk alone.

Waiting there in the end, is a heart that calls you a friend.

That's me, clapping the loudest, welcoming you home.

Instrumental

Verse 4

 So when your heart is heavy, like a stone,

 from carrying its load,

 and you look into the mirror and see someone you don't know

 When the shadows are closing in on you like a hand around your throat,

I will shine the light.

I will shine the light.

 When you've given into your fears,

 when you've lost your will to fight,

 let me know what I can do,

 let me try to make it right.

I will shine the light.

I will shine the light.
