This angry world can be so harsh
But she kept the faith in the human race
You never spoke the words that scarred
You played your ace when you broke cold ways
In truth we're not so far apart
(You are the light) you are the light in this world
Under a burning star in an empty space, you've come so far
(You are the light) you are the light in this world
♪
When darkness rules an empty heart
Set the world aglow with a brilliant show
It only takes a single spark
Let the fire grow, lеt the people know
It doеsn't have to be so hard
(You are the light) you are the light in this world
Under a burning star in an empty space, you've come so far
(You are the light) you are the light in this world
We are the light (we are the light) in this world
Through all life's aggravations
The trials and tribulations
The light still burns within us all (let's start coming together now)
(Gotta rise above it and show 'em how)

(You are the light) you are the light in this world
Under a burning star in an empty space, you've come so far
(You are the light) you are the light in this world
Just like the burning sun, you can shine your light on everyone
Put your hands up and hear that sound
Put your hands up and feel the light shine down
Put your hands up and feel that sound
Put your hands up and feel the love goin' 'round
Put your hands up and hear that sound (you are the light in this world)
Put your hands up and feel the light shining down
Put your hands up and feel that sound (we are the light in this world)
Put your hands up and feel the love comin' down
