Don't it seem rough these days
Just trying to make ends meet
And when it comes down to lovin'
Better practice what we preach

When yuo're young and alone
You tend to raise your sights too high
And you're headed down a dead-end street
Where you're bound to realize
Just to realize that...

Love is a light, leadin' us the way
And that is all we need to understand
But where love is going, it's hard to tell
Ooh, nobody knows

Don't think it's over now
'Cause it's only just begun
And it will keep on comin' back again
Shinin' long after you're gone

So if you're feelin' down and out
Better search for a heart that's true
'Cause alone you ain't nobody
Until somebody loves you
Someone to love you...

Love is a light, leadin' us the way
And that is all we need to understand
But where love is going, it's hard to tell
Ooh, nobody knows
