Standing In The Light Of Love
Neil Young · Other Songs - Neil Young
Why have you put me on the spot?
I don't know how you feel
But for me it's getting hard
Swimming in the deep blue sea
Marching in the big parade
All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of love
Standing in the light of love
Doesn't matter who you are
Or who you're not
All it takes is a little love
To make a handout worth a lot
Swimming in the deep blue sea
Marching in the big parade
All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of your love
Standing in the light of love
Drowning in the deep blue sea
Drudging in the long parade
All I need is a little shade
Standing in the light of your love
Standing in the light of love
Standing in the light of love
Standing in the light of love
Standing In The Light Of Love
