Lyrics Light a Candle - Neil Young

Light a Candle

Instead of cursing the darkness
Light a candle for where we’re going
There’s something ahead, worth fighting for
When the light of time is on us
You will see our moment come
And the living soul inside will carry on
It’s a chance to give new meaning to every move we make
In the cavern, in the cave, where we come from
When the light of dawn is on us
We will see what we can be
And the ancient ones can sleep an easy sleep
In the hallways of the ages, on the road to history
What we do now will always be with us
Instead of cursing the darkness
Light a candle for where we’re going
There’s something ahead, worth looking for
Light a candle in the darkness
So others might see ahead
Light a candle in the darkness, when you go
