Sweetness And Light Lyrics - Clifford T Ward

When life gets weary 

And the going gets tough 

And you're feeling the worse for wear 

Well don't be down hearted 

And don't give up 

Remember we on the left still care. 

It's gonna take some intuition 

To see us through 

It's gonna take a lot of revision 

An' a different point of view 

But there's one thing for certain 

We're in the right, an' those on the right are in the wrong 

You can fool some of the people some of the time 

But you can't fool us all for long. 

It's gonna be a new inspiration 

That'll win the day 

It's gonna sweep across this nation 

We gotta find a way 

So to all you among us in your ivory towers 

Casting shadows over this land 

You'd better pack your deterrents and nuclear powers 

And leave the sunlight in safer hands. 

It's gonna be a new age of sweetness and light 

That's coming 

As pure as the snow that's driven 

And from he that hath shall be taken away 

And to he that hath not shall be given. 

INSTRUMENTAL 

It's gonna be a new age of sweetness and light that's coming 

As pure as the snow that's driven 

And from he that hath shall be taken away 

And to he that hath not shall be given. 

When life gets weary 

And no matter how hard you try 

You cannot make ends meet 

Don't be down hearted 

Do not cry 

Remember we on the left shall speak. 

There'll be blue birds over 

The white cliffs of Dover 

Tomorrow just you wait and see 

(and fade).
