I heard the knock on my door I heard the ring of the bell I got the letter but I couldn't go So many thoughts in my head So many places to be So many faces that I long to see Standing in front of me tonight The lights will take me where I long to be Just like a thousand nights before Somebody said to me Why do you do this to you Why sit back and relax Go to the islands and forget it all Slow down, you're moving too fast You seem afraid it won't last Take my advice, go straight and settle down Thank you for caring, but tonight the lights will take me where I long to be Just like a thousand nights before I can't explain, it gives me something Give me the lights, precious lights Give me lights Give me my hope, give me my energy You can turn the wrong into right Precious lights Illuminate me, carry me away Carry me, carry me
