- Guiding Light Lyrics / with translationsDo I, Do I?
Belong to the night?
Only only
Only tonight.
All the ladies
Stay inside.
Time may freeze,
A world could cry.
All this night running loud
I hear the whispers I hear the shouts.
And tho they never cry for help...
Tell me who sends these
Infamous gifts.
To make such a promise
And make such a slip.
Oh no
Can't pull a trick
Never the rose
Without the prick
But tell me how do I say?
I woke up and it was yesterday.
Do I again face this night?
Guiding Light. Guiding Light
Guiding thru these nights.
Darling Darling
Do we part like the seas? The roaring shell...
The drifting of the leaves...
All intent
Remains unknown.
It's time to sit up
Up on the throne.
It's seen before but it's always new.
So look close and see who's come thru.
Never again to face this night
Guiding Light, Guiding Light
Guiding thru these nights.
Belong to the night?
Only only
Only tonight.
All the ladies
Stay inside.
Time may freeze,
A world could cry.
All this night running loud
I hear the whispers I hear the shouts.
And tho they never cry for help...
Tell me who sends these
Infamous gifts.
To make such a promise
And make such a slip.
Oh no
Can't pull a trick
Never the rose
Without the prick
But tell me how do I say?
I woke up and it was yesterday.
Guiding Light. Guiding Light
Guiding thru these nights.
Darling Darling
Do we part like the seas? The roaring shell...
The drifting of the leaves...
All intent
Remains unknown.
It's time to sit up
Up on the throne.
It's seen before but it's always new.
So look close and see who's come thru.
Never again to face this night
Guiding Light, Guiding Light
Guiding thru these nights.
