lyrics

Don't tell me East from West
white from black
right from wrong
or kind from mean

I've seen the best of times
the finest lines
the in-between's

No, I'm not a kid anymore
I can find what I'm looking for
but I still might need some light
when i'm steering my ship
in the dead of the night
yeah, i still might need some light.

I've seen wars and peace
floods and droughts
kings and queens
have's and have-nots

I've seen the rich and poor
the dim lit store
the double wide
and the empty car-lot

No, I'm not a kid anymore
I can find what I'm looking for
but I still might need some light
when i'm steering my ship
in the dead of the night
yeah, i still might need some light.

I've felt the closed fist
The steel toe boot
a broken heart in that cold dark room
I've felt the love of friends
the hand that lends
the slate is clean
don't let the darkness loom

No, I'm not a kid anymore
I can find what I'm looking for
but I still might need some light
when i'm steering my ship
in the dead of the night
yeah, i still might need some light.

Anchored by Bigley’s writing, the band marches onward. ... more
