Like a friend of a friend Walking 'round town Talkin' that stuff And you think you're on top But you find that you just ain't enough Walkin' 'round, head down All by yourself late at night, yeah And the black of the street Blends up into the stark night sky But the light shines brightest in the dark (Shine brightest in the dark) All you need is a match To start a little spark 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Shine brightest in the dark) 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Hey hey, hey hey) Like a seed that you lost In the garden of your own desire And you must've been counting All the things that you hadn't acquired Oh, ignite your torch And fill your heart up with fire 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Shine brightest in the dark) All you need is a flint To start a little spark 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Shine brightest in the dark) 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Hey hey, hey hey) Oh you're a point of light in the sky of stars Even when this world is feeling so bizarre 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark now 'Cause the light shines brightest in the dark (Hey hey, hey hey) (Hey hey, hey hey)
