Lyrics:
I’ve been watching the sun go down, down in the sea
I’ve been telling you we’ve got to be free, we got to be free
people say you got to have hope, we got to have hope
I’ve got a ray of light over my head on my way home
I’ve got a ray of light over my head on my way home tonight
a ray of light over my head on my way home
I’ve got a ray of light over my head on my way home tonight
a ray of light over my head on my way home
and so we listen to the sound of the ocean waves eating the shore
yeah, we listen to the breathing of peace, surrounding it all
we need to get a grit stone to edge our perfect insanity
and so we listen to the sound of reality to light up the road
I’ve got a ray of light over my head on my way home tonight
a ray of light over my head on my way home
I’ve got a ray of light over my head on my way home tonight
a ray of light over my head on my way home
