Young hearts beat fast
All in an innocent body
Sweet smiles, happy faces
Greet their Mom and their Dad

When the light our lives has gone
Can you tell me how do we carry on?

There's too many young souls
Lost in this way
Don't let the children go
There's so many people taken away
Shine a little light
Let them grow

Their love is light
And it all shines in their eyes
Love for you and me
Strong enough to reach to the skies

When the light our lives has gone
Can you tell me (tell me)
How do we carry on?

There's too many young souls
Lost in their way
Don't let the children go
(Spirit of a child)
There's  so many people taken away
Shine a little light
Let them grow

(Like the spirit of a child)
Shine a little light, a little light
(Spirit)
(Like the spirit of a child)
