Bacon Brothers The Light The Way Lyrics

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
