Hold a candle to your heart
Let the shadows on your face
Rock you gently with their grace
It's been a long and lonely day
I don't know what you've been through
Things have to en d to start anew
No one can change those rules
the earth keeps on turning
Craving for some morning light
It takes the back roads, fools the night
It knows the sun is burning
Somewhere around the corner
Do get some rest, you need it bad
Sometimes the joy can make
It's been a long and lonesome day
I can't tell what you've been through,
but I won't ever stop telling you
Some things have to go to start anew,
I know it, I've been there too
the earth keeps on turning
Longing for the morning light
It takes the back roads and fools the night
It knows the sun is shining
Somewhere around the corner
the earth keeps on turning
Craving for some morning light
It takes up our creative force and I
And now the sun is burning
Somewhere around the corner
