a little light

Elton John

Hello, darling
Ain t it a cold grey day?
Maybe it s time I hung my boots up
On the nail and walk away
What do you say we kill good morning
Like the liar that it is?
Let the imposters jump for glory
Let s just not and say we did

Alright, sunshine
With the papers on your plate
I see the sorrow in the headlines
And the worry on your face
I guess it s no fun to have a heart
While we are living through these days
But there s still a lot of beauty
Dancing circles round this place

That s why we re gonna get up (Get up)
Point our chin towards the sun
Say a little prayer and count our blessings one by one
Don t hide yourself away
Don t grow hard from what you ve heard
You gotta break your heart wide open
Let a little light into the world
Into the world

It s such a fine line
Between faith and apathy
Pain can put you on your feet
Or bring you to your knees
If you re locked inside the end of days
And darkness pulls your mind
Bend the bars and hold the fire
Let every corner shine

That s why we re gonna get up (Get up)
Point our chin towards the sun
Say a little prayer and count our blessings one by one
Don t hide yourself away
Don t grow hard from what you ve heard
You gotta break your heart wide open
Let a little light into the world
Into the world

What else can we do?
What do these years mean
If we haven t got the answers anyway?
Do we see it to believe it
Or believe it to be seen?
Oh, ain t it a fight?
Let there be light

Let a little light
Let a little light into the world
Let your light
Let a little light into the world
And sing into the darkness like a Sunday morning bird
Break your heart wide open
Let a little light into the world
Into the world
Into the world
Ooh, ooh
Ooh
