City On A Hill

I've been dancing with the darkness
Walking straight into the wind
I've been spinning with the shadows
Can't find my way home again

Under midnight skies of disappointment
I can barely see
From the pitch black deep within the valley
I still believe that

Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill (a city on a hill)
And if it didn't burn out in the storm then I know it never will (I know it never will)
Even though I thought all the hope I had been lost in me
Somebody was pulling the darkness apart, reminding me that
Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill
A city on a hill
A city on a hill
A city

There's still life within the ashes
Where forgotten embers glow
Moving towards it from a distance
And it guides me where to go

Under midnight skies of disappointment
I can barely see
From the pitch black deep within the valley
I still believe that

Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill (a city on a hill)
And if it didn't burn out in the storm then I know it never will (I know it never will)
Even though I thought all the hope I had been lost in me
Somebody was pulling the darkness apart, reminding me that
Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill
A city on a hill
A city

The darker the night gets
The brighter the morning is
So whatever's coming must be
Something beautiful

The darker the night gets
The brighter the morning is
So whatever's coming must be
Something beautiful

Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill (a city on a hill)
And if it didn't burn out in the storm then I know it never will (I know it never will)
Even though I thought all the hope I had been lost in me
Somebody was pulling the darkness apart, reminding me that
Somewhere inside there's a light of a city on a hill
A city on a hill
A city...

(There's a light
There's a light
There's a light
Of a city)
