Something Light

Give us something light, love
To lift us on our way
A melody to sing or hum
Some warmth on a winter's day

Everything is not your life or love
Or death or a family dispute
Our time is spent mostly working or sleeping
Or shuttling between the two

So give us something light, love
Because I've got my dark places too
But to make time pass more pleasantly
I don't always share them with you.

So give us something light, love
To lift us on our way
A melody to sing or hum
Some warmth on a winter's day
