The sky is darkening and it's filled with rain
I'm standing at the window looking out again
Oh it's a cold wind and it's blowing stronger
I don't believe we can hold on much longer

We used to think that love would make it right
Now I can't help crying it's as black as night out there
Oh it's a bad night but I'll stop pretending
That love on it's own can bring a happy ending to us now

I read the news today oh boy it's not looking good
Another light goes out, another light goes out

Oh oh oh cruel world how can you be so tough
All you need is love, but there's just not enough
Is it any wonder that we're lost in doubt now
When it's hard to believe that love can pull us out now

Well I read the news today oh boy it's not looking good
Another light goes out, ohh another light goes out

Why...oh why...

Oh oh it's a cold wind and it's blowing stronger
I don't believe that we can hold on much longer no
Well I read the news today oh boy it's not looking good
Another light goes out, ohh another light goes out
