To The Light Lyrics - Bobby Long

well the radio was blasting another day old tune 

my mother left me for a war, for an old dragoon 

the streets were burnt , no one cried, no one made a sound 

my friends waited by the wayside until the end of the day 

the pipes burst in the road and soaked our way 

we followed that path until we came to our home 

well her diamonds twinkle fast, her time don't move 

she can turn inside the evening 

she's got nothing to prove 

she comes, she comes to the light 

no one was speaking except the sound of an alarm 

it kept me up for an hour, lying in her arms 

and she comforts me and tells me, "lay your head"
