Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Name your price, a ticket to paradise
I can't stay here anymore
And I've looked high and low
I've been from shore to shore to shore
If there's a shortcut, I'd have found it
But there's no easy way around it
[Verse 2]
Light of the world, shine on me
Love is the answer
Shine on us all, set us free
Love is the answer
[Verse 3]
Who knows why
Someday we all must die?
We're all homeless boys and girls
And we are never heard
It's such a lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely world
People turn their heads and walk on by
Tell me, is it worth just another try?
[Verse 4]
Light of the world, shine on me
Love is the answer (Let it shine)
Shine on us all, set us free
Love is the answer (You know the answer is love)
[Verse 5]
Tell me, are we alive or just a dying planet?
What are the chances?
Ask the man in your heart for the answers
[Verse 6]
And when you feel afraid
(Love one another)
When you've lost your way
(Love one another)
When you're all alone
(Love one another)
When you're far from home
(Love one another)
When you're down and out
(Love one another)
All your hope's run out
(Love one another)
When you need a friend
(Love one another)
When you're near the end
Love, we got to to love
We got to love one another
[Verse 7]
(Light of the world, you got to shine on me, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Light of the world, shine on me
Love is the answer
Shine on us all, set us free (I know that love can save the day)
(Love is all that can save the day)
Love is the answer (Just give it just one more chance)
Light of the world, shine on me (Love, love)
Love is the answer (Love, love)
Shine on us all, set us free (Woo)
Love is the answer (Love, you just can't let us down, love)
