  • Hey, hey, hey
    Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh

    When something's dark, let me shed a little light on it
    When something's cold, let me put a little fire on it
    If something's old, I wanna put a bit of shine on it
    When something's gone, I wanna fight to get it back again

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

    When something's broke, I wanna put a bit of fixin' on it
    If something's bored, I wanna put a little excited on it
    If something's low, I wanna put a little high on it
    If something's lost, I wanna fight to get it back again

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
    Yeah, yeah, yeah

    When signals cross, I wanna put a little straight on it
    If there's no love, I wanna try to love again

    I'll say your prayers, I'll take your side
    I'll find us a way to make light
    I'll dig your grave, we'll dance and sing
    What I save could be one last lifetime

    Hey, hey, hey
    Uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh, uh-huh-huh

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, fight to get it back again
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Fight to get it back again, oh yeah, yeah, yeah
    Fight to get it back again, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Writer/s: Eddie Vedder, Matt Cameron, Mike Mccready, Stone Gossard
