Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I believe that there is light

Though the world is dark tonight

Storms are raging, like a dog they bite

And it feels like winter

[Verse 2]

But I believe the winter

That you can show us what they've learned

Your generation will crumble and burn

'Cause this is winter

[Verse 3]

So I need the light

Oh, I need the light

I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite

Yeah, I need the light to come into my life

[Verse 4]

We can make it through the night

Holding on, hold on so tight

Take my hand till the morning light

We'll make it through winter

[Verse 5]

'Cause I believe this storm will break

Youth will triumph, yes they'll make mistakes

But I know they'll win whatever it takes

'Cause this is winter

[Verse 6]

'Cause I need the light

Oh, I need the light

I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite

Yeah, I need the light to come into my life

[Verse 7]

I need the light

I need the light

I need the light

I need the light

[Verse 8]

'Cause I need the light

Oh, I need the light

I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite

Yeah, I need the light to come into my life

[Verse 9]

'Cause I need the light

Oh, I need the light

I need the sun to rise and let my heart ignite

Yeah, I need the light to come into my life
