Paul Newman - Lead Me Into The Light

Dark shdows fall across my mind,
voices fade into the night,
I stand alone on the edge of time,
won't someone lead me into the light.

I feel them stare from outside this veil of shadow,
but alone I must face the eternal dark,
my soul is stripped bare, I cry into the darkness,
won't someone lead me into the light.

have I no faith in God above?
have I no faith in those that are near?
have I no faith in my body, or my soul?
I fear I shall never see the light.

alone I walk this path I must follow,
each step torn from within my soul,
In my dreams I hear your voice, I reach out my hand,
won't you lead me into the light.

If I could only touch a star I would find you there,
your eyes, your smile, so soft and warm,
In tender love you'll take my hand and then,
only then, will you lead me into the light.

Paul Newman
