Back to the Light (Live Version) Lyrics by Brian May

Live at the Brixton Academy

1992

Far, far from the light
Hear the night creatures call
With a cold breath they howl
All the hollow hours
They're calling you
I'll be there
No matter what your going through
In the dark I care
I'm holding on, I'm hoping on
It's still the same old me inside
Back to the light
Back to the streets that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land where the sunshine heals my soul
Deep deep in the night
When the world fills with tears
And the wind blows
Colder and colder it grows
And the fire dims
With the same old fears
I'll be there
No matter where you're going to
In the dark I care
No matter when, I'll still be there
When you make it to the other side
I'm going back
Back to the light
Back to the light
Back to the streets that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Going back to the land
Where the sunshine heals my soul
Yeah Yeah
On and on
Searching for the clearer view
Winning and losing an inner war
Wonder what we do it for
Though the road seems never ending
Hold on to the hope I'm sending through
No matter what your going through
In the dark I care
I'm holding on, believe it
We'll be walking in the light
'cos they'll be no place left to hide
Back to the light
Back to the streets that are paved with gold
Yeah yeah
Back to the light
Back to land
Where the sunshine heals my soul
Yeah yeah yeah
Back to the light
Ooh ooh
Back to the light
Ooh ooh
Come back with me
Ooh my baby
Give me one more time
Back to the light
