Just A Little Light — текст песни (Grateful Dead)

Well, there ain`t nobody safer than someone who doesn`t care.
And it isn`t even lonely when no one`s ever there.
I had a lot of dreams once, but some of them came true...
The honey`s sometimes bitter when fortune falls on you.

So you know I`ve been a soldier in the armies of the night.
And I`ll find the fatal error in what`s otherwise all right.
But here you`re trembling like a sparrow, I will try with all my might
To give you just a little sweetness...
Just a little sweetness...
Just a little light.

I have always heard that virtue ought be its own reward,
But it never comes so easy when you`re living by the sword.
It`s even harder to be heartless when you look at me that way.
You`re as mighty as the flower that will grow the stones away.

Even though I been a stranger, full of irony and spite
Holding little but contempt for all things beautiful and bright,
Something shines around you and it seems, to my delight
To give me just a little sweetness...
Just a little sweetness...
Just a little sweetness...
Just a little light.

This could be just another highway, coiled up in the night.
You could be just another white-tail, baby, stranded on my brights,
There`s a tingling recognition
Like the sound of distant thunder
And I begin to wonder
If the love I`ve driven under
Won`t ignite.

So you know I`ve been a soldier in the armies of the night.
And I`ll find the fatal error in what`s otherwise all right.
Something shines around you that seems, to my delight
To give me just a little sweetness...
Just a little sweetness...
Just a little sweetness...
Just a little light.
