Shine A Light In The Dark

I've been lost before and I had to pay

It was never easy but I found a way

Well the journey was hard and the road was tough

There were times when I cried lord I've had enough

Please don't desert me now

Don't you leave me stranded now I need a friend

Please don't desert me now

You've gotta show me mercy when I'm helpless

Show me mercy when I'm helpless

Shine a light in the dark

Hold me back when I get reckless

Shine a light in the dark

Stand me up if I get legless

Shine a light in the dark

Shine a light in the dark

Shine a light in the dark

I've been down and out and I've been fit to drop

But the thought of you wouldn't let me stop

Now a man should stand upon his own two feet

Because the taste of failure is a bitter sweet

Please don't desert me now

I can hear the reaper calling in the wind

Please don't desert me now

You've gotta show me mercy when I'm helpless

Show me mercy when I'm helpless

Shine a light in the dark

Hold me back when I get reckless

Shine a light in the dark

Stand me up if I get legless

Shine a light in the dark

Shine a light in the dark

Shine a light in the dark

Where were you when the chips were down

I fell apart when I hit the town

Where were you when I couldn't get arrested

Where were you when the lights went out

I blew a fuse, did you hear me shout

Where on earth do I look for heavens sake

There's a brotherhood that I want to see

Gotta take my share of equality

There's no harmony in a one man band

Even god almighty needs a helping hand

Please don't desert me now

There's no time and I can't fight another day

Please don't desert me now

You've gotta show me mercy when I'm helpless

Show me mercy when I'm helpless

Shine a light in the dark
