Next To Normal (Original Broadway Cast Recording)
Light
We need some light, first of all we need some light
You can't sit here in the dark and all alone, it's a sorry sight
It's just you and me, we'll live, you'll see
Night after night we'd sit and wait for the morning light
But we've waited far too long
For all that's wrong to be made right
Day after day wishing all our cares away
Trying to fight the things we feel but some hurts never heal
Some ghosts are never gone but we go on, we still go on
And you find some way to survive
And you find out you don't have to be happy at all
To be happier alive
Day after day give me clouds and rain and gray
Give me pain if that's what's real, it's the price we pay to feel
The price of love is loss but still we pay, we love anyway
And when the night has finally gone
And when we see the new day dawn
We'll wonder how we wandered for so long, so blind
The wasted world we thought we knew
The light will make it look brand new, so let it, let it
Let it, let it, let it shine, shine, shine
Day after day we'll find the will to find our way
Knowing that the darkest skies will someday see the sun
When our long night is done there will be light, there will be light
When we open up our light
Sons and daughters, husbands, wives can fight that fight
There will be light, there will be light
There will be light, there will be light
You can't sit here in the dark and all alone, it's a sorry sight
It's just you and me, we'll live, you'll see
Night after night we'd sit and wait for the morning light
But we've waited far too long
For all that's wrong to be made right
Day after day wishing all our cares away
Trying to fight the things we feel but some hurts never heal
Some ghosts are never gone but we go on, we still go on
And you find some way to survive
And you find out you don't have to be happy at all
To be happier alive
Day after day give me clouds and rain and gray
Give me pain if that's what's real, it's the price we pay to feel
The price of love is loss but still we pay, we love anyway
And when the night has finally gone
And when we see the new day dawn
We'll wonder how we wandered for so long, so blind
The wasted world we thought we knew
The light will make it look brand new, so let it, let it
Let it, let it, let it shine, shine, shine
Day after day we'll find the will to find our way
Knowing that the darkest skies will someday see the sun
When our long night is done there will be light, there will be light
When we open up our light
Sons and daughters, husbands, wives can fight that fight
There will be light, there will be light
There will be light, there will be light
