A Light in the Black Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can't forget his face, what a lonely place?
Has he really let us go?
All the time that's lost, what's the final cost?
Will I really get away?
All my life it seems just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Can't believe it all, did he really fall?
What to do now, I don't know

[Chorus]
Something's calling me back
There's a light in the black
Am I ready to go?
I'm coming home

[Verse 2]
Breathed the air before, heard the thunder roar
Never knew it was for me
Always looking down, lost and never found
Eyes that looked but not to see
All my life it seems just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Like an open door that you've passed before
But you've never had the key

[Chorus]
Something's calling me back
There's a light in the black
Am I ready to go?
I'm coming home
I'm coming home, yeah
I'm going back to my home

[Instrumental Break 02:43-06:10]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Guitar Solo]

[Refrain]
I'm going home, home, home
Going home, home, home
I'm coming back!

[Verse 3]
Don't forget his face, what a lonely place
Did he really let us go?
All the time that's lost, what's the final cost?
Will I really get away?
All my life it seems just a crazy dream
Reaching for somebody's star
Can't believe it all did he really fall?
What to do now, well I know

[Chorus]
Something's calling me back
Like a light in the black
Yes, I'm ready to go
I'm coming home
Home, yeah

[Outro]
I've got my way back home
In the sky, there in the sky
I see your star
