I can't really say this is what I mean
'cos I hardly ever mean what I say.
Somewhere, sometime it'll make sense to me,
yes there will definitely come a day.
When I can twist my hands with a simple move
and I'll be able to turn away.
Until then I will surely bide my time,
until then I won't sleep at night.
Don't know if I'm coming in or walking out,
but there must definitely be a light.

I listen to the voice of a hundred years
and every sound is pure and true.
Though I'm touched by the strength of a thousand men
somehow I still think of you.
As I'm filled with the heat of a thousand waves :
I can't see the point no more.
I can blink my eyes in a silent way
but there once was a light before.

There's a light!

One day they'll award me for my thoughtlessness
and for the same sad excuses I make.
I will build my princess from a Southern rag,
that's a joke that I'm willing to take.
It's not coming home that I miss the most,
it's the everyday, simple things you do.
Because my thoughtlessness never killed no man
but I'm not so sure about you...

There's a light!
