When The Smoke It Finally Clears
--words and music by Michael Stanley

There's a thousand way around it
There's a hundred ways to leave
There's a million times I've fallen
Just trying to believe
That I might find the answer
To try and ease your fears
But I'll find you in the darkness
When the smoke it finally clears...

You can pray for reinforcements
Never seems to do much good
You can try and storm the ramparts
If you only could
But hold that light inside you
So when the shadows draw too near
I can find you in the darkness 
When the smoke it finally clears...

	When the smoke it finally clears
	We'll find a place for landing...
	When the smoke it finally clears
	We'll pray for understanding...

But hold that light inside you
So when the shadows draw too near
I can find you in the darkness 
When the smoke it finally clears...

So I can find you in the darkness 
When the smoke it finally clears...

And I will find you in the darkness 
When the smoke it finally clears...
