In The Light Of Day

Steve Winwood · Refugees Of The Heart [1990]

Had a dream last night

The angels had come riding

In the light of the day

Where there was no more hiding

All so fine

I still see them shine

I saw angels play

Right in the light of the day



And I watched them fly

Across a fiery sky

And I heard them cry

As they passed me by

I could feel the light inside me

I could feel it everywhere

Life was clear and fair



Woke up in the dark

And tried to keep believing

In the light I saw

In time of constant grieving

Vision fair

Please don't disappear

And please hear my prayer

There in the light of the day



When I look within

I see them shine again

As the darkness ends

And the light begins

I can feel the light inside me

I can feel it everywhere

They are still there



On the street tonight

The innocent are dying

And the world's not right

So many millions crying

Evil lives

And hate never gives

Hell is never far

And is this all we are



Oh Lord, hear us cry

Up in the fiery sky

That our souls may fly

To you when we die

Help us feel the light inside us

Help us feel it everywhere

Oh Lord, be there
