And if the terrors of the night

Come creeping into your days

And the world comes stealing children

from your room

Guard your innocence from hallucination

And know that darkness

always gathers around the light

If there is a light

We can't always see

If there is a world

We can't always be

If there is a dark

Now we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light

Don't let it go out

When the wind screams and shouts

And the sea is a dragon's tail

And the ship that stole your heart away

Sets sail

When all you've left is leaving

And all you got is grieving

And all you know is needing

If there is a light

We can't always see

If there is a world

We can't always be

If there is a dark

Now we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light

Don't let it go out

'Cause this is a song

A song for someone

Someone like me

I know the world is dumb

But you don't have to be

I've got a question

For the child in you before it leaves

Are you tough enough to be kind?

Do you know your heart has its own mind?

Darkness gathers around the light

Hold on

Hold on

There is a light

We can't always see

If there is a world

We can't always be

If there is a dark

That we shouldn't doubt

And there is a light

Don't let it go out

And this is a song

A song for someone

This is a song

A song for someone

Someone like me

Someone like me

Someone like me
