Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
I just thought I heard a small voice cryingLooked again and saw that it was meI feel like a little boy denyingThat he fears the night ’cause he can’t seeThen a larger thought said stop your cryingDon’t be scared to search ’cause you may findFate holds out a candle for your footstepsTime rolls back the shadows of your mindIt’s a long, long lonely nightYou can make the morning if you tryIt’s a long, long lonely nightOh, we can make the morning if we tryGirl, we can make the morning you and ITogether, together, togetherLoneliness is darkness’ first companionSpend the night alone and faith may bendShare it all and see how fear starts fadingChase away the shadows with a friendDawn’s elusive light is just beginningNow the day can push away the nightDreams can make the sun feel much brighterHope creates a foothold for the lightIt’s a long, long lonely nightWe can make the morning if we tryIt’s a long, long lonely nightWe can make the morning if we tryGirl, we can make the morning you and I, OhTogether
