Back To The Light

Queen · Other Songs - Queen

Far, far from the light

Here the night creatures call

In the cold breath they howl

And the hollow tears, they're calling you



I'll be there, though maybe you wont see my babe

I'll still care, no mater where I'll still be there

When you make to the other side



Lord I'm going back, back to the light

Back to the dreams that are paved with gold

Back to the light

Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul



Deep, deep in the night

When the world fils with tears

And the wind grows, colder and colder it grows

And the fire dimes, with the same old fears



I'll be there, no matter what you're going through

In the dark I care, I'm holding on, I'm hoping on

It's still the same old me inside#



Lord I'm going back, back to the light

Back to the dreams that are paved with gold

Back to the light

Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul



On and on, searching for the clearer view

Winning and loosing an inner war

Wondering what we do it for

Though the road seems never ending

Hold on to the hope I'm sending through



No matter where you're going to

I'll be there

I'm holding on, believe it

We'll be walking in the light

'cos there'll be no place left to hide



Back to the light

Back to the dreams that are paved with gold

Back to the light

Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul

Let me hear you babes - yeah, yeah, yeah
