Lyrics

In the velvet darkness
Of the blackest night
Burning bright
There's a guiding star
No matter what or who you are
There's a light
Over at the Frankenstein place
There's a light
Burning in the fireplace
There's a light, a light
In the darkness of everybody's life
I can see the flag fly, I can see the rain
Just the same, there has got to be
Something better here for you and me
The darkness must go down the river of night's dreaming
Flow morphia slow, let the sun and light come streaming
Into my life, into my life
There's a light
Over at the Frankenstein place
There's a light
Burning in the fireplace
There's a light, a light
In the darkness of everybody's life
