Lyrics

He asked her out because he thought that she was pretty
She never gave any thought to the colour of his skin
The reserve was on the other side of the city. How would she explain their love to her kin?

From the time that he was a little baby until the day that he became a grown man. A lot of people had always acted petty towards folks that looked like him.

Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times

Her father had served in the army, when Windtalkers were all we were ever good for. Now ain’t it such a pity? He never wanted one to walk through his front door.

Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times

We have to come on through the anger
We have to come on through the hate
We’re well aware of the danger
But we know that it’s not too late

Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times



Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times


Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times

The battle is not over
If thoughts could kill there’d be no one around
We need to love and respect our neighbours
Not bear arms and shoot them down


We have to come on through the darkness.
We have to help others across
Even now in our darkest hour
It’s dark but we’re not lost


Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times

Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times


Love is the first responder
There’s never been any doubt in my mind
That the colour of skin is like water. We were born to be colour blind.


Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times

Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
Never Let The Lights Go Dim
We’re going to get through these troubled times
