From the cradle to the back porch
Makin music all for the love
Ever siince my feet were walkin
Walked on sunshine from above

Mother made me, Father gave me
Everything I didn't know that I needed
Even later, after fallin
Still I remain in this thing that I love

You can follow your light down a dark road
Soon enough you will see the end
And as you follow your light down a dark road
Hold on tight to the light of your friends

Got the lonely, got the heartache
Got the doctor's that spit in my ear
Tried to hold back, tried to slow
Called it caution, but it was fear
Given time and given reason
Every problem can dissolve
In to the water runnin over
Like the flow of this thing that we love

You can follow your light down a dark road
Soon enough you will see the end
And as you follow your light down a dark road
Hold on tight to the light of your friends
In the future, I'll try harder
Though it's hard to tell what is on the way
If you need me, there I will be
Cause it's true that at the end of the day
Every baby's in this together
No matter how far we have come
The only thing that is makin us better is
Staying here in this thing that we love
You can follow your light down a dark road
Soon enough you will see the end
And as you follow your light down a dark road
Hold on tight to the light of your friends
