Can You See The Lights? Lyrics

How far
How far do you run to catch it?
How long
How long do you wait to find it?
Now, can you see the lights?
Can you hear the noise?
Well help is on it's way.
In the night, in the dark
Things are brewing.
In the night
How much
How much must you give to gain it?
My my
How did I
Get to be by your side?
Now, can you see the lights?
Can you hear the noise?
Well help is on it's way.
In the night, in the dark
Things are brewing.
In the night
Can you see the lights?
Can you hear the noise?
Well help is on it's way
ooohhh
ahhhhh
In the night, in the dark
Things are brewing
In the night

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

i think this song is about how willing you are to keep going when things are hard. sometimes things are a big struggle, but if you're strong enough you can get to the end where the light is and get the help you need. i've had problems in my life where i needed to be strong and i have to step up and get help for what i was doing. that's the way i see it.
