Black Light — текст песни (Nicole C. Mullen)

by Nicole C. Mullen

Hopped in my car
Went down to Birmingham, Alabama
(There I) went to the museum of civil rights
And got a lesson in suffering
(There I) saw the likes of Rosa Parks,
Medgar Evers, Dr. Martin Luther King
And I got all emotional singin` "We shall over come",
"Let freedom ring"

I`m looking for a boy, looking for a girl
Who`s got a dream inside to change the world.
Give me a lady
Come on give me a man
Who`s strong enough to take a stand (and be a)

[Chorus]
Black light, a candle in the darkness
(we need some more) Black light, courageous and strong
`Til there is no more bigotry and madness
All it takes is a spark, and the fire will burn on and on

I stood on my front porch with all the lights out
Guess what I was seeing
There was a myriad of diamonds flung out across a velvet sky
And it served to remind me of the perseverance of those before me
`Cause the darker the night the brighter the starlights are gonna shine
(Heee)

I`m looking for a boy looking for a girl
Who`s got a dream inside to change the world
Give me a lady
Come on give me a man
Who`s strong enough to take a stand (and be a)

[Chorus]

I said the fire will burn on and on
You know the fire will burn on and on
I need more!

Black light (repeat 16 times)
