I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands I was lost in the night with no sight of you And at times it was so blue and lonely Heading for the light - Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, I'm Heading for the light - Ooh, I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me - And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned I didn't know the mess I was in - My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm Heading for the light - Ooh, my hands were tired Jokers and fools on either side - But still I kept on till the worst had gone Now I see the hole I was in - My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change And I get the strangest feeling, as I'm Heading for the light - I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back All the dreams are coming true as I think of you Now there's nothing in the way to stop me Heading for the light Now there's nothing in the way to stop me Heading for the light
