Dark Night, Bright Future - Dolly Parton
Lyrics by:Dolly Parton
Composed by:Dolly Parton
Dark night
Bright future
Like the phoenix from the ashes
I shall rise again
Dark night
Bright future
I've been hurt and broke
But I am on the mend
Got so much ahead of me
The past is gonna set me free
Learn from it and just believe
That I can touch the sky
Everyone knows happiness
Everybody grieves
We all cry
We all smile
Everybody bleeds
Everybody has a past
Things they wanna hide
There's give
Take
Love
Hate in each and every life
Dark night
Bright future
Like the phoenix from the ashes
I shall rise again
Dark night
Bright future
I've been hurt and broke
But I am on the mend
Got so much ahead of me
What's in the past
I'll leave it be
Run from it and just believe
That I can touch the sky
Forgiveness is a magic wand
Makes things disappear
Kindness wipes away regret hope can conquer fear
Tenderness
A soothing balm
Healing wounds and scars
Love says we can start anew right from where we are
Dark night
Bright future
I'm on my way
I'll start today
I'm gonna be alright
Dark night
Bright future
It's darkest just before the light
And though it's been a long
Dark night
Blue sky on the other side
Dark night
Bright future
Like the phoenix from the ashes
I shall rise again
Dark night
Bright future
I've been hurt and broken
But I am on the mend
