Child Of Light Lyrics

I've been wandering around the hills tonight, oh
In this kingdom, is where my heart resides

And I know I must be dreaming and none of this is real
A fire inside says otherwise and burns on through the fields
The scenery around me is splitting at the seams
And through the cracks a light escapes and shines all over me
Like ohh oh oh oh

I've been wandering, around the hills tonight, oh
In this kingdom, is where my soul divides, oh

And all of this is fleeting, I'm only passing through
And underneath the spinning lights, a twisted point of view
I walk on through the valley, a shadow over me
And in the big fluorescent sky a voice begins to sing
Like "I'm a child of light and I can see for miles
I'm a child of light and I can see for miles"

I'm a child of, I'm a child of
I'm a child of light
I'm a child of, I'm a child of light
I'm a child of, I'm a child of light
I'm a child of, I'm a child of light
I'm a child of, I'm a child of light

I'm a child of light and I can see for miles

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.

This song is really gorgeous. I'm not sure what it means. I guess the 'light' references could symbolise God. I'm not too fussed either way. I'm personally not religious so I don't 'hear' the God references. I just see it as an uplifting song :)
