TAKEN BY THE LIGHT
 
When it's finally over and I'm taken by the light
I pray that I'll remember the way you look tonight
Radiant and happy laying here with me
Making sweet love like two waves out on the sea
 
Should I die tomorrow I'll go a peaceful man
Knowing in my bones that I've done the best I can
There never was a reason that made good sense to me
To be sorry for pleasing a true love that came to be
 
Nothing's ever easy here
The answers are all unclear
But I know it'll be all right
When I'm taken by the light
 
Someday I'll see my father walking Heaven's road
We'll both sit and laugh about home movies that he showed
I ain't in any hurry but when that day is here
I hope to face my maker with a conscience that is clear
 
No I cannot say I'm happy 'bout all the things I've done
But I would fight the Devil for my daughter and my son
No matter how we study it remains a mystery
Can't tell you what happens next
And man you can't tell me
 
Nothings ever easy here
The answers remain unclear
But I know it's be all right
When I'm taken by the light
 
So saddle up your pony we'll ride up to the hill
Maybe we'll get high there I will if you will
Maybe we'll make love there
Underneath the stars
Or maybe we'll just talk about how life can be so hard
 
Nothings ever easy here
The answers remain unclear
But I know it'll be all right
When I'm taken by the light
 
I know it's be all right
When I'm taken by the light
I know it'll be all right
