Dance into the Light Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's there in the eyes of the children
In the faces smiling in the windows
You can come on out, come on open the doors
Brush away the tears of freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're here, there's no turning back
We have each other
We have one voice
Hand in hand we will lay the tracks
Because the train is coming to carry you home

[Chorus]
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light

[Verse 2]
There'll be no more hiding in shadows of fear
There'll be no more chains to hold you
The future is yours - you hold the key
And there are no walls with freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're here, we won't go back
We have one world
We have one voice
Side by side we are not afraid
Because the train is coming to carry you home
[Chorus]
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Do you see the sun - it's a brand new day
Oh, the world's in your hands, now use it
What's past is past, don't turn around
Brush away the cobwebs of freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
Now we're here, there's no turning back
You have each other
You have one voice
Hand in hand you can lay the tracks
Because the train is coming to carry you home

[Chorus 3: Phil Collins]
Come dance with me
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light
Everybody dance into the light
Come on and dance into the light
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody
Dance into the light
Dance
Come on and dance into the light
Everybody
Come on and dance into the light, into the light
Everybody dance into the light
Everybody
Everybody dance into the light, into the light, into the light

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
