Verse:
I'm wide awake, it's the middle of the night
Standing in the dark, waiting up for the light
In here I'll remain, til the sun is in the sky
Standing in the dark, waiting up for the light

Chorus:
There is love, there is peace in this world
So take it back, say it's not what you had thought
Grab a hold, take these melodies
With your hands write a song to sing
It isn't such a bad, bad world and I'll say
Oooooh oooh oooh

Verse:
These times are strange, I can feel it in the night
Standing in the dark, holding on for the light
And here I'll remain, til the great sun shines
Standing in the dark, waiting up for the light

Chorus 2x
It isn't such a bad, bad world
A bad, bad world and I'll say
Ooooh ooooh ooooh
Standing in the dark, waiting up for the light
