Lyrics
Janet:
In the velvet darkness of the blackest night
Burning bright, there's a guiding star
No matter what or who, who you are
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
Janet:
There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life
Brad:
I can see the flag fly
I can see the rain
Just the same - there has got to be
Something better here - for, you and me
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
Brad:
There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life
Riff Raff:
The darkness must go
Down the river of nights dreaming
Flow morphia slow let the sun and light
Come streaming into my life
Into my life
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
Brad, Janet, and company:
There’s a light, light...
Brad y Janet:
In the darkness of everybody’s life
Janet:
In the velvet darkness of the blackest night
Burning bright, there's a guiding star
No matter what or who you are
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life
Brad:
I can see the flag fly
I can see the rain
Just the same - there has got to be
Something better here for you and me
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life
Riff Raff:
The darkness must go
Down the river of nights dreaming
Flow morphia slow let the sun and light
Come streaming into my life
Into my life
Brad y Janet (company):
There’s a light (Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light (Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life

Burning bright, there's a guiding star
No matter what or who you are
Brad y Janet (company):

There’s a light, light...
In the darkness of everybody’s life
