What Light by Wilco

I'm not really familiar with Wilco as a band, but I've heard that they're quite good.

I don't own a copy of the Sky Blue Sky album, but I was able to get a copy of this song by way of Relix Magazine (see www.relix.com), which had a free CD that came along. I love the acoustic feel and the vibe in the song. Simple yet sweet.

This song made me a fan of Wilco






If you feel like singing a song
And you want other people to sing along
Just sing what you feel
Don't let anyone say it's wrong

And if you're trying to paint a picture
But you're not sure which colors belong
Just paint what you see
Don't let anyone say it's wrong

And if you're strung out like a kite
Or stung awake in the night
It's alright to be frightened

When there's a light (what light)
There's a light (one light)
There's a light (white light)
Inside of you

If you think you might need somebody
To pick you up when you drag
Don't loose sight of yourself
Don't let anyone change your bag

And if the whole world's singing your songs
And all of your paintings have been hung
Just remember what was yours is everyone's from now on

And that's not wrong or right
But you can struggle with it all you like
You'll only get uptight

Because there's a light (what light)
There's a light (one light)
There's a light (white light)
...
Inside of you
