Lyrics
BEADS OF LIGHT
BY LYNDA DOBBIN-TURNER and JOHN NEIL MARTIN
CHORUS
Nothing's really wrong, but nothing's right
Every day just folds itself into another night
The sun comes up
And then the sun goes down
My world just spins round, and round and around
And I just hold on tight
Grasping beads of light
V1
Every single part of me is tired
Seems I've spent my whole life
Walking this high wire
The skin I'm in no longer feels like home
Ghosts in every corner
Won't leave me alone
I tell myself that its all in my head
But the me I knew is hanging by a thread
CHORUS
Cause nothing's really wrong but nothing's right
Every day just folds itself into another night
The sun comes up
And then the sun goes down
My world just spins round, and round and around
And I just hold on tight
To make it through the night
V2
My mind fills the silence in between
Looking in the darkness
At all that I have seen
Lightning strikes, illuminates it all
I see my reflection
Where the shadows fall
I know that it's not all in my head
But the me I knew is hanging by a thread
CHORUS
Cause nothing's really wrong but nothing's right
Every day just folds itself into another night
The sun comes up
And then the sun goes down
My world just spins round, and round and around
And I just hold on tight
Grasping beads of light
BRIDGE
I string the beads I gather on a rope
Maybe they'll become a ray of hope
A ray of hope
CHORUS
Nothing's really wrong but nothing's right
Every day just folds itself into another night
The sun comes up
And then the sun goes down
My world just spins round, and round and around
I just hold on tight
To make it through the night
