On my way through the darkest night
I keep moving on, I keep traveling light
It was a great escape through my own mirage
High beams in the distance flashing on and off
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
I speak these words with an autumn tone
The falling leaves feel like home
We all want spring and perfect aim
We all want love just like a runaway train
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
I want to be secure, I want to never look back
I’m afraid my heart can’t do that
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Don’t fade to black, don’t fade to black
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
Just hold on to the light
