Lyrics
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
AND OTHERS JUST THE SHADOWS FALL
SOME CAN'T LOOK PAST THE NIGHT
BUT I CAN SEE THE BRIGHT DAY'S DAWN
AND I KNOW THE SHADOWS WHERE THE BROKEN-HEARTED GO
TO LICK THEIR WOUNDS
PARALYZED BY FEAR THEY TELL THEIR LITTLE LIES
THEIR BRITTLE HEARTS BETRAYED
WELL I'M TRYIN' TO BE A MAN
BUT I'M CHAINED TO THIS TREADMILL
I?M TRYIN' TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND
AND GOD KNOWS IF I WILL
CAUSE SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A PAWN IN A GAME THAT I CAN?T WIN
BUT I WON'T SIT - SIT BACK AND LET THE WALLS CLOSE IN
WE'VE GOTTA FIGHT, AH-NO WE CAN NEVER GIVE UP
WHERE OTHERS FALL WE'VE ONLY JUST BEGUN
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
OTHERS JUST THE SHADOWS FALL
SOME CAN'T LOOK PAST THE NIGHT
BUT OTHERS SEE THE BRIGHT DAY'S DAWN
AND I KNOW THE SHADOWS WHERE THE BROKEN HEARTED GO
TO LICK THEIR WOUNDS
PARALYZED BY FEAR THEY TELL THEIR LITTLE LIES
THEIR BRITTLE HEARTS BETRAYED
BRIDGE
WELL WHO ARE YOU AND COULD OUR LOVE / OUR LOVE BE TRUE?
WHO ARE YOU AND COULD THIS LOVE OF OURS BE TRUE?
WHICH OF THE TWO ARE YOU THE MANY OR THE FEW
TELL ME WHO DO I GIVE MY LOVE TO TONIGHT?
CONGA /PIANO INSTRUMENTAL
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
OTHERS JUST THE SHADOWS FALL
SOME CAN'T LOOK PAST THE NIGHT
BUT I CAN SEE THE BRIGHT DAY'S DAWN
AND I KNOW THE SHADOWS WHERE THE BROKEN HEARTED GO
TO LICK THEIR WOUNDS
PARALYZED BY FEAR WE TELL OUR LITTLE LIES
OUR BRITTLE HEARTS BETRAYED
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
SOME CAN SEE THE LIGHT
