lyrics
When I was just a boy, my heart it used to sing
Filled with grace and an easy faith, there was joy in everything
Now those good old days gone by, they seem so long ago
The inner light that shined so bright is just a distant glow
First one thing, then another, soon I lost my way
Now I’m just tryin’ to get on track, get on back to the break of day
Oh I’ll be alright
If only I can make it, make it to the morning light
I know I’ve got to hold on, hold on through the night
And if I do, I’ll make it through, make it to the morning light
It’s hard to keep the flame afire in a world so dark and cold
Through the years, the scars and tears, surely take their toll
But somewhere not so deep inside, a hopeful child remains
Lord, I pray I find a way to let him out again
First one step, then another, that’s the only way
The only way to get on track, get on back to the break of day
Oh I’ll be alright
If only I can make it, make it to the morning light
I know I’ve got to hold on, hold on through the night
If I do, I’ll make it through, make it to the morning light
One step, then another, that’s the only way
The only way to make it through, make it to the break of day
Oh I’ll be alright
If only I can make it, make it to the morning light
I know I’ve got to hold on, hold on through the night
‘Cause if I do, I’ll make it through, make it to the morning light
And when the break of dawn appears, oh what a blessed sight,
‘Cause that’s when I’ll know I’ve made it, made it to the morning light
