[Verse 1] I thought it had left me, that shimmer, that spark, has my magic finger faded into the dark, The power inside me, the glow in the night, has my golden touch now slipped out of sight. [Pre-Chorus] But magic was waiting, not gone, only still, was waiting for the moment, hidden powerful will, It rested like morning beneath fallen leaves, like sap in the roots of the old willow trees. [Chorus] The old light within me The flame I once knew The old light within me Was still shining through (was still shining through) [Verse 2] Now I call it back gently, with wonder, not fear, I listen for echoes that always were near, The old light within me, the flame I once knew, Was never a stranger, it's still shining through. [Pre-Chorus] So I walk with the sunrise, I follow the breeze, I gather the gold from the branches of trees, The spark that I searched for was never apart, It lived in the quiet, deep down in my heart. [Chorus] The old light within me The flame I once knew The old light within me Was still shining through (was still shining through) [Bridge] And if shadows surround me, I’ll sing to the sky, For magic remembers the reasons we try, A soft little ember, a bright guiding friend, The light that was waiting with me till the end. [Final Chorus] The old light within me The flame I once knew The old light within me Was still shining through The old light within me Still leading me home (Was still shining through) (Still leading me home)
