Dance Into The Light Lyrics
In the faces smiling in the windows
You can come on out, come on open the doors
Brush away the tears of freedom
We have each other, we have one voice
Hand in hand, we will lay the track
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Everybody dance into the light
There'll be no more chains to hold you
The future is yours, you hold the key
And there are no walls with freedom
We are one world, we have one voice
Side by side we are not afraid
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Everybody dance into the light
All the world's in your hands, now use it
What's past is past, don't turn around
Brush away the cobwebs of freedom
You have each other, you have one voice
Hand in hand, you can lay the tracks
Because the train is coming to carry you home
Come dance with me
Everybody dance into the light

I forgot to add; it could be the freedom of finding religion as well and believing in it whole heartedly.

I find Phil Collins' choice of images "tears/walls/cobwebs of freedom" a bit perplexing; what could he mean by that? I would think that freedom would connote the exact opposite...
