Just when you think Hope is lost And giving up Is all you got, Blue turns black, Your confidence is cracked, There seems no turning back from here Sometimes there isn't an obvious explanation Why the holiest hearts can feel the strongest palpitations That's when you can build a bridge of light, That's what turns the wrongs all right That's when you can't give up the fight That's when love turns nighttime into day, That's when loneliness goes away, That's why you gotta be strong tonight, Only love can build us a bridge of light When your feet are made of stone You're convinced that you're all alone Look at the stars instead of the dark You'll find your heart shines like the sun Let's not let our anger get us lost And the need to be right comes at way too high a cost That's when love can build a bridge of light That's what turns the wrongs all right That's when you know it's worth the fight That's when love turns nighttime into day That's when loneliness goes away, That's why you gotta be strong tonight 'Cause only love can build us a bridge of light Deep breath, take it on the chin But don't forget to let love back in That's when love can build a bridge of light That's what turns the wrongs all right That's when you can't give up the fight That's when love turns nighttime into day, That's when loneliness goes away That's why you gotta be strong tonight 'Cause only love can build us a bridge of light Only love can build us a bridge of light Of light, of light
