| Oh, I hand them this life
|
| To do what they will
|
| They’ve got to find their way from here
|
| Oh, show us the way
|
| If they only knew
|
| Oh, show us the light
|
| Show them what light?
|
| It shines from within
|
| You make your own day
|
| You make your own night
|
| And sometimes you win
|
| Oh, show us the way
|
| But you always get through
|
| Oh, show us the light
|
| Oh, why do they come and ask for more?
|
| They’ve got stars they don’t have wishes for
|
| They’re just givin' up their blame to me
|
| How do the fools survive?
|
| I’m wonderin' why, I’m wonderin' how
|
| They’re gonna bail themselves out now
|
| Oh, give us this day
|
| I’m shakin' my head
|
| Oh, keep us through night
|
| Oh, I hand them this life
|
| To do what they will
|
| They’ve got to find their way from here
|
| Oh, show us the way
|
| If they only knew
|
| Oh, show us the light
|
| Oh, why do they come and ask for more?
|
| They’ve got stars they don’t have wishes for
|
| They’re just givin' up their blame to me
|
| How do the fools survive?
|
| It’s not like it was before
|
| When they call I won’t come running
|
| It was so long ago
|
| I left them on their own
|
| Oh, how do the fools survive? |
