Follow the moment, why don’t you ease yourself back
Listen to silence, sometimes the quiets not sad
Living for no-one turning the pages alone
Soak up the silence, sometimes the quiets your home
You’re still hoping for the light to shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine
Cos lights are for living and breathing inside
So light up your life and hold on for the ride
Lights are for living and revealing
Lights help the side of you that’s feeling
Gather momentum, use all the strength from your breath
Hanging the lantern, opens your heart more or less
Shadows surround you, pockets of light take their guard
Silence within you, steadies the beat of your heart.
You’re still hoping for the light to shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine
Cos lights are for living and breathing inside
So light up your life and hold on for the ride
Lights are for living and revealing
Lights help the side of you that’s feeling
Cos lights are for living and breathing inside
So light up your life and hold on for the ride
Lights are for living and revealing
Lights help the side of you that’s feeling
You’re still hoping for the light to shine, shine, shine
Shine, shine, shine
