I've wandered around with nothing more than time on my hands   I was lost in the night with no sight of you   And at times it was so blue and lonely   Heading for the light      Been close to the edge, hanging by my fingernails   I've rolled and I've tumbled through the roses and the thorns   And I couldn't see the sign that warned me, i'm   Heading for the light      Ooh - I didn't see that big black cloud hanging over me   And when the rain came down I was nearly drowned   I didn't know the mess I was in      My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway   I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change   And I get the strangest feeling, as i'm   Heading for the light      Ooh - my hands were tired   Jokers and fools on either side   But still I kept on till the worst had gone   Now I see the hole I was in      My shoes are wearing out from walking down this same highway   I don't see nothing new but I feel a lot of change   And I get the strangest feeling, as i'm   Heading for the light      I see the sun ahead, I ain't never looking back   All the dreams are coming true as I think of you   Now there's nothing in the way to stop me   Heading for the light      Now there's nothing in the way to stop me   Heading for the light
