about

Inspired by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

lyrics

It doesn’t interest me if you can walk on water
It doesn’t interest me if you’ve climbed Mt. Everest
It doesn’t interest me if you have a million dollars
Or if you’re a big success

I wanna know if you can open up your heart
And find the fear and give it love
I want to know if you can listen to wisdom
Of you tears

Chorus:
And when the darkness comes and you’re all alone
Do you feel an aching in your bones?
Do you long to be a light in this world?
Do you long to be a light in this world?

It doesn’t interest me if you know all the rules
It doesn’t interest me how well that you save face
It doesn’t interest me how far you got in school
Or your religion or your race.

I wanna know if when you feel like you’ve got nothing left
To give, you give some more
I wanna know if you can greet a stranger with an open door

Chorus

Be a light, be a light, be a light today (8X)
