Looking for the Light
The Werks Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time goes by,
Day finds night,
Looking for the light.
Lost our way,
It was right,
Can we find the light?
. . .
. . .
We all need love,
Without the fight,
Looking for the light,
Turn the page,




The future's bright,
Standing in the light.

Overall Meaning

The Werks's song "Looking for the Light" is an introspective reflection on the human condition and the constant search for meaning and purpose. The lyrics speak to the cyclical nature of life, with time passing and days turning into nights. The singer seems to be lost and searching for something, perhaps a guiding light that can lead them out of the darkness. Even though they acknowledge that they were on the right path at some point, they question whether they can find their way back to it.


The chorus is where the song's message is most clear, as the singer sings about the universal human need for love and the desire to find it without the hostility and struggle that often accompanies it. They are seeking an easier or more harmonious path that can guide them towards the light of a better future. In the end, the singer seems to have found the clarity and serenity they were searching for, standing in the light and ready to move forward into whatever the future may hold.
