Shine a Light in the Dark 10cc

[Verse 1]
I've been lost before and I had to pay
It was never easy but I found a way
Well the journey was hard and the road was tough
There were times when I cried, Lord I’ve had enough

[Pre-Chorus]
Please don't desert me now
Don't you leave me stranded now, I need a friend
Please don't desert me now
You've gotta show me mercy when I’m helpless

[Chorus]
Show me mercy when I’m helpless
Shine a light in the dark
Hold me back when I get reckless
Shine a light in the dark
Stand me up if I get legless
Shine a light in the dark
Shine a light in the dark
Shine a light in the dark

[Verse 2]
I've been down and out and I’ve been fit to drop
But the thought of you wouldn't let me stop
Now a man should stand upon his own two feet
Because the taste of failure is a bitter sweet
