To Be a Brilliant Light Lyrics by On A Friday

Medicinal Sounds

1987

[Verse 1]
I'm getting sort of worried
Like the time of life I've reached
I'm getting pretty old
I should be reaching my peak
But I haven't made the stairs yet
But you know what mean girls say
If you haven't got it when you're thirty
That's the way you stay
[Verse 2]
I can wash and clean the bedrooms
I can make some egg and toast
If you let me stay the night
Then I'll let you get some rest
We could talk awhile on the futon
If that's the way you want it
Tell me where you want me
Tell me where to sit
[Chorus]
Where to start to build a clock
Yeah, I depended on you
I depended on you
To be a brilliant light yeah
To be a brilliant light
To be a brilliant light yeah
To be a brilliant light
[Verse 3]
Bring me in the church
On the corner of your street
I'll be praying for forgiveness
I'll be praying for some love
Because I haven't got a job
And my heart's been closed
You could start with the trousers
'cause it's what's stopping the blood flow
[Chorus]
Where to start to build a clock
I depended on you
I depended on you
To be a brilliant light yeah
To be a brilliant light
To be a brilliant light yeah
To be a brilliant light, oh
To be a brilliant light
To be a brilliant light
To be a brilliant light
