Light the Light

Light the light when the load ain’t easy, light up, don’t fade it
There’s much to endure, so much to cast away
How, how, how long can you leave it?
There’s a grand highway out here, waiting for you to let go
Look at Sheena Day
She was all that a dame should be
Look at Johnny G., he was old but funny
Ron Eyre was not this way, see he left it too late
'Why don’t you come,' I would say
When he came God had changed
Light the light when the load ain’t easy, light up, don’t fade it
There’s much to endure, so much to cast away
How, how, how long can you leave it?
There’s a grand highway out here, waiting for you to let go
Sheena Day’s not slim
But can still be a dangerous tease
Johnny G. can’t swim, but he still loves the sea
Ron Eyre was not this way, see he’s trapped in his fate
'Why don’t you change,' I would say
But he can’t break his faith
Light the light when the load ain’t easy, light up, don’t fade it
There’s much to endure, so much to cast away
How, how, how long can you leave it?
There’s a grand highway out here, waiting for you to let go
