Such a beautiful day for
startinÕ again, the sky was aqua blue.
IÕd cast out a demon from
within, to let the light come shining through.
My love and I had crossed a
bridge that IÕd kept going around.
With her help and my desire
we cast the demon out,
Cast the demon out.
Chorus
We are all pupils and
teachers lookinÕ for the light,
That shines out between us
through the darkest night.
We are drawn together to
help each other learn to live this life.
We come around, again and
again, until we get it right, until we get it right, until we get it right.

People come into our life at
the strangest of times.
They seem to know just what
we need, whatÕs goinÕ through our minds.
So be honest to yourself and
talk with a friend.
Everything we need to know
weÕll know in the end,
Know in the end.
Repeat Chorus
We are all pupils and
teachers lookinÕ for the light,
That shines out between us
through the darkest night.
We are drawn together to
help each other learn to live this life.
We come around, again and
again, until we get it right, until we get it right, until we get it right.
Vs 3
Perhaps in a way I have also
been a teacher for you.
Shown you through my
mistakes what a bad seed can do.
Have I helped you to see
through my own pain how precious is this life?
I know IÕve seen it in
myself cominÕ through your eyes, through your very eyes
Repeat Chorus
We are all pupils and
teachers lookinÕ for the light,
That shines out between us
through the darkest night.
We are drawn together to
help each other learn to live this life.
We come around again and
again, until we get it right, until we get it right, until we get it right.
