When the world turns its face away,
And the colors fade to gray,
When the noise of the crowd feels hollow and loud,
And your voice gets lost in the fray—
There’s a spark in the dark they can’t erase,
A quiet fire that still has grace,
You’ve carried storms and you’re still standing tall,
That’s not nothing at all.
[Chorus]
So lift your eyes, the light still rises,
Even when the night disguises
All the dreams that used to shine—
They’re waiting, they’re still alive.
Every heart that breaks is stronger,
Every road just makes you wander
To the place where truth survives—
Hold on, the light still rises.
[Verse 2]
It’s easy to feel you don’t belong,
When the world forgets what’s right from wrong,
But kindness grows where no one sees,
Like roots beneath the winter leaves.
You are proof that hope can stay,
That love can bloom in the hardest clay,
No one else can steal your flame,
You are more than their blame.
[Chorus]
So lift your eyes, the light still rises,
Even when the night disguises
All the dreams that used to shine—
They’re waiting, they’re still alive.
Every tear that falls is teaching,
Every loss has meaning reaching
Far beyond the pain and lies—
Hold on, the light still rises.
[Bridge]
When the world seems cold, be the fire,
When they fall asleep, dream higher.
When they say “give up,” say “not today,”
There’s a dawn that finds its way.
Lift your eyes, the light still rises,
Through the cracks the sun surprises,
Every broken soul can mend—
This is not the end.
Every heart that keeps on trying
Turns the ashes into flying,
You’re the reason stars survive—
Hold on… the light still rises

Young Pulse : Boogie To The Top - 13 Octobre 2020

AOR Disco was started in 2009 with a mission to rediscover the lost golden age of Adult Orientated Rock. From the beardy acoustic era of late 1960s Laurel Canyon to the white-suited Yacht Rock yuppies of the early 1980s, AOR Disco seeks out the best in vintage Californian drive-time hits, soft-rock disco, psychedelic funk, and the kind of obscure album tracks you might find at the back of your dad's record collection.

AOR is back and you need never say sorry for liking this music ever again.
