Lyrics

[Intro] On the edges of the night I heard they found a sign of life I heard they found a sign of life [Verse 1] But ah, was I born too soon? 'Cause I always wait Mother said to me "You get down and you pray" Generations came Generations blame "The past in flames So what's the use anyway?" [Pre-Chorus 1] For a sign of rain Many years you'll wait [Chorus] But ah, but I believe it's wrong To need prayers to love Come up off the knees Let's get up, get up, be gone To the rising road Many miles to go And you turn and say "Soon, my friend, soon we'll know" Many hours to go Many hours to go [Post-Chorus 1] (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) [Verse 2] Well, I used to float High above the coast In the Maritimes Saw the full moon rise Where I left my bones Where I left the ghost When I close my eyes He peacefully lies [Post-Chorus 1] (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) [Bridge] On the edges of the night I've been looking all of my life On the edges of the night I heard they found a sign of life On the edges of the night I've been looking all of my life On the edges of the night I heard they found a sign [Chorus 2] And it's a boom, flicker, boom, flicker Coming closer and quicker Boom, flicker, boom, flicker Coming closer and quicker [Post-Chorus 2] Boom chain, boom chain Cracking in the rain Boom chain, boom chain Cracking in the rain [Bridge 2] Ooooo, I need you, I need you I've been trying to meet you Ooooo, I need you, I need you I've been trying to meet you [Verse 3] And it split the night Like the speed of light Thunder drums at dawn Now here comes the sun In between the night And the edge of light Comes a sign of life Comes a sign of life [Post-Chorus 1] (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) (In my own light) [Outro] On the edges of the night I heard they found a sign of life (On the edges of the night) (I heard they found a sign of life) On the edges of the night I've been looking all of my life (On the edges of the night) (I've been looking all of my life)
