Standing In The Light (Extended Version) - Level 42[00:00:00]
A summer's day in sixty eight[00:00:34]
Sunlight through a window falls across the page[00:00:36]
A young boy tries to concentrate[00:00:43]
His mind would rather fly beyond the classroom cage[00:00:45]
He can take the teacher's voice[00:00:52]
Turn it into music from another place[00:00:54]
All the other kids don't have that choice[00:01:01]
Hanging on to every word the teacher says[00:01:03]
Day and night we will be touched[00:01:11]
Standing in the light don't shadow the genius[00:01:19]
So out of school he walks alone[00:01:47]
Soon his thoughts are flowing like a golden stream[00:01:49]
An empty house he calls his own[00:01:56]
This place becomes a temple to a silent dream[00:01:58]
Sometimes he will clap and sing[00:02:04]
Deep in meditation he will learn to be[00:02:07]
And only birds upon the wing[00:02:14]
With upward fascination claim to be so free[00:02:16]
Day and night we will be touched[00:02:24]
Standing in the light don't shadow the genius[00:02:32]
Your smile your freedom[00:02:43]
Comes to you from withing[00:02:47]
Still a child with a reason[00:02:51]
You're afraid but it's time to begin[00:02:56]
Blow the wind of change[00:03:00]
Though the words are strange to hear[00:03:02]
Say what's on your mind[00:03:09]
Now is not the time for fear[00:03:11]
Day and night[00:04:54]
Standing in the light don't shadow the genius[00:05:03]
A summer's day in eight one[00:06:12]
Sunlight through a window falls across the page[00:06:15]
A young man's fight has just begun[00:06:21]
And rising up inside him is a burning rage[00:06:24]
They called his dream a fantasy[00:06:30]
A song that every child has sung since time began[00:06:33]
But just as long as he believes[00:06:39]
Standing in the light he'll make them understand[00:06:42]
