Light a Candle - Neil Young

Instead of cursing the darkness

Light a candle for where we’re going

There’s something ahead, worth fighting for

When the light of time is on us

You will see our moment come

And the living soul inside will carry on

It’s a chance to give new meaning to every move we make

In the cavern, in the cave, where we come from

When the light of dawn is on us

We will see what we can be

And the ancient ones can sleep an easy sleep

In the hallways of the ages, on the road to history

What we do now will always be with us

Instead of cursing the darkness

Light a candle for where we’re going

There’s something ahead, worth looking for

Light a candle in the darkness

So others might see ahead

Light a candle in the darkness, when you go
