Peu De Lumiere

Peu de Lumière

The world got much dimmer today
Burning to illuminate the way 
This little light of mine...

Doesn't matter how dark it may get
A spark I will never forget
This little light of mine...

Tied to the weight I must carry
Weary and wanton and wary
This little light of mine...

Donning another work glove
You could call it a labor of love
This little light of mine...

It's not healing which I will not do
Just that which I won't do for you
This little light of mine...

A star shooting by that you feel
A wish isn't enough to be real
This little light of mine...

Lesson learned time and again
Light and dark, kept apart
segregate love and friends 
This little life of mine...
