Grateful Dead - Jast A Little Light Lyrics
Well, there ain't nobody safer than someone who doesn't careAnd it isn't even lonely when no one's ever thereI had a lot of dreams once, but some of them came true...The honey's sometimes bitter when fortune falls on youSo you know I've been a soldier in the armies of the nightAnd I'll find the fatal error in what's otherwise alrightBut here you're trembling like a sparrow, I will try with all my mightTo give you just a little sweetness...Just a little sweetness...Just a little light.I have always heard that virtue oughta be its own reward,But it never comes so easy when you're living by the swordIt's even harder to be heartless when you look at me that wayYou're as mighty as the flower that will grow the stones awayEven though I been a stranger, full of irony and spiteHolding little but contempt for all things beautiful and bright,Something shines around you and it seems, to my delightTo give me just a little sweetness...Just a little sweetness...Just a little sweetness...Just a little light.[Bridge:]This could be just another highway, coiled up in the nightYou could be just another white-tail, baby, stranded on my brights,There's a tingling recognitionLike the sound of distant thunderAnd I begin to wonderIf the love I've driven underWon't ignite.So you know I've been a soldier in the armies of the nightAnd I'll find the fatal error in what's otherwise alrightSomething shines around you that seems, to my delightTo give me just a little sweetness...Just a little sweetness...Just a little sweetness...Just a little light
