This a song about loving someone living with illness.

lyrics

"Sweetness and Light"

May sweetness and light weigh heavy upon your days
May angels chase all the frowns which near your face
May good news always find your door
May all your waits be worth waiting for
May the blackness just back off and leave you space

I'll forget I ever knew
And give up this biding time
I'm on the highway all alone
What's up is up to me
I'll either hold the line
Or end up crying for what I've done
After just another one

May whatever you get be exactly what you're lookin' for
May whatever you've lost come back to you once more
And may you never need to chase
the perfect time with the perfect place
May the blackness just back off and leave you some space

I'll forget I ever knew
And give up the biding time
I'm on the highway all alone
What's up is up to me
I'll either hold the line
Or end up crying for what I've done
After just another one,
After just another one,
After just another one,
After just another one.

After just another one my darling
what have I done
I’m on the run my darling
From what I may become
After just another one.
