Lights Lyrics - Cornerstone - Styx

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
