See the Light

Mama thinks of what she never did with her life
Papa stares into the pages of the New York Times and says
Something must be going on around here

My good friend Jeanny seen better days
Everybody thought it was just a nasty phase
I just miss her smile, hope she finds a better place

When I look around and I see my world is moving way to fast
I've got to grab a hold of something, that I know is gonna last.

And I forget about the way things might have been
Open your heart and let your life begin
That's when you finally see the light

Story of a life beyond control
Spending all your money, but that won't save your soul
That's when you finally see the light (see the light)

Jacky's always talking about places that he's never seen
Guess the story sounds better if it's make believe
Takes him to another state of mind

There's a woman on the train talking to herself
Cursing out the man and the lies he sells
Well maybe you can spare a little change

When I look around and I see my world is moving way to fast
I've got to grab a hold of something, that I know is gonna last.

And I forget about the way things might have been
Open your heart and let your life begin
That's when you finally see the light

Story of a life beyond control
Spending all your money, but that wont save your soul
That's when you finally see the light (see the light)

Tell me why
You're holding so much pain inside
You say you don't know why
I'll be the one who gets you through the night

(We all fall down)
I'll give it all to help you find the love you let go and learn how to fly...

(And forget about the way things might have been
let your life begin)
That's when you finally see the light (see the light)

Story of a life beyond control
Spending all your money, but that won't save your soul
That's when you finally see the light (see the light)

And I forget about the way things might have been
Open your heart and let your life begin
(That's when you finally see the light)
Finally see the light
(Story of a life beyond control)
Spending all your money, but that wont save your soul
That's when you finally see the light
