lyrics
On a clear and cloudless day
I think I see an answered prayer
But then I look again
I see nothing but the glare
So I turn and walk away
But my mind is playing games
I think I hear a voice
Someone calling out my name
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I guess I lost you in the light
So I turn and face the sun
And I try to clear my mind
But your hand is on my shoulder
And your voice comes from behind
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I guess I lost you in the light
The picture’s not complete
Without the lines where light and darkness meet
When I turn and face my shadow
It’s suddenly clear
You were always right here
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I shade my eyes
And at last I realize
You were always there
Just beyond the glare
I must’ve lost you in the light
I guess I lost you in the light
I guess I lost you in the light
I think I see an answered prayer
But then I look again
I see nothing but the glare
So I turn and walk away
But my mind is playing games
I think I hear a voice
Someone calling out my name
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I guess I lost you in the light
So I turn and face the sun
And I try to clear my mind
But your hand is on my shoulder
And your voice comes from behind
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I guess I lost you in the light
The picture’s not complete
Without the lines where light and darkness meet
When I turn and face my shadow
It’s suddenly clear
You were always right here
I shade my eyes
And much to my surprise
Someone’s really there
Just beyond the glare
I shade my eyes
And at last I realize
You were always there
Just beyond the glare
I must’ve lost you in the light
I guess I lost you in the light
I guess I lost you in the light
