Where does the light go
When the candle burns out?
Does it dance on the water
From an old lighthouse?
Does it move through fireflies
Into thunderclouds?
Where does the light go
When the candle burns out?
Where does the light go
When the fire dies down?
Does it rise into the sun
Or hide beneath the ground?
Does it blaze another trail
To another town?
Where does the light go
When the fire dies down?
'Cause if you close eyes
After looking at the light
It'll shine in your mind
It'll shine in your mind
Like a lantern for the dark
You can carry in your heart
Let it shine in your mind
Let it shine in your mind
Where did the light go
On the day that He died?
It ran into a grave, and down Mary's eyes
It stayed there for three days in the darkest night
It opened heaven's door
And said, "Come on inside."
'Cause if you close eyes
After looking at the light
It'll shine in your mind
It'll shine in your mind
Like a lantern for the dark
You can carry in your heart
Let it shine in your mind
Let it shine in your mind
Where does the light go
When we take our last breath?
Does it float out the window
Onto heaven's steps?
Will the Sun say, "Welcome home. It's like you never left"?
Where does the light go?
Where does the light go?
