about

From Disc 2 of Extra-Ordinary

lyrics

Won’t be pushed around, all of my life
To take what just comes, to wait in the dark
Frustrated anger, I aim at you
The changes inside me, ain’t easy to do

But I will keep this light shinin’
I will keep this heart bright
I will keep, I will keep

Handouts and pity, I don’t need
Opinions and judgments aren’t really me
I’ve lost my way from love this time
My heart knows the way, but not my mind

But I will keep this light shinin’
I will keep this heart bright
I will keep, I will keep
I will keep

I know the world we want is like a misty dream in the nighttime
That with the daylight disappears
But like the moon too shy, she hides her face in the shadows
Waiting for her moment to be here

The darkness, thick darkness, cannot surround the light
The light, the light (the darkness)
The light, the light (the darkness)
The light

But I will keep this light shinin’
I will (the light) keep this heart bright
I, I will (the light) keep this light shinin’
I, I will (the light) keep this heart bright

I will keep, I will keep
I will keep
