NATALIE

We need some light

First of all, we need some light

You can't sit here in the dark

And all alone

It's a sorry sight

It's just you and me

We'll live, you'll see

DAN

Night after night

We sit and wait for the morning light

But we've waited far too long

For all that's wrong to be made right

DIANA

Day after day

Wishing all our cares away

Trying to fight the things we feel

But some hurts never heal

Some ghosts are never gone

But we go on

We still go on

And you find some way to survive

And you find out you don't have to be happy at all

To be happier alive

NATALIE

Day after day

Give me clouds, and rain, and grey

Give me pain if that's what's real

NATALIE AND HENRY

It's the price we pay to feel

DAN AND DIANA

The price of love is loss

DAN

But still we pay

DAN AND HENRY

We love anyway

GABE

And when the night has finally gone

And when we see the new day dawn

We'll wonder how we wandered for so long so blind

The wasted world we thought we knew:

The light will make it look brand new

So

ALL

Let it

Let it

Let it

Let it

Shine

Shine

Shine

Day after day (day after day)

We'll find the will to find our way

Knowing that the darkest skies

Will someday see the sun

DAN

When our long night is done

DAN AND NATALIE

There will be light

DIANA

There will be light

There will be light

ALL

There will be light

When we open up our light

Sons and daughters,husbands, wives

Can fight that fight

There will be light

There will be light

There will be light

There will be light
