When the lights go down on me
When the truth is hard to see
When hope is fading out of sight
Love is the only light
When my world becomes unreal
And the pain is all I feel
When I can't find the love I knew
It's sad but true
We find ourselves crying
'Cause we can't make it last
We hope for the future
Then reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me, love is the only light
When I find no reasons why
And it's time to say goodbye
When there's nothing left to say or do
It's sad, sad but true
We find ourselves crying
'Cause we can't make it last
We hope for the future
Then reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me, love is the only light
Burn my fingers, feel the pain
Kiss the flame and
Start again (start again)
And again (and again)
And again
And again, and again, and again
We find ourselves crying (we find ourselves)
'Cause we can't make it last
We hope for the future (we hope for love)
Then reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me, love is the only light
Love is the only light
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
