This generally represents the entrance/exit to the tunnel, where daylight can be seen. In physical reality, this is most commonly experienced when trains enter into tunnels through mountains, and then come out the other side.

It is a metaphor for having to travel through a dark place where one can not see one's own path. This can represent a great struggle, and/or depression. It has been used in varying contexts, such as in great wars, (WWI and WWII), or of religious struggles such as the plight of the Jewish people.

Sometimes it's the promised land. Sometimes it's just New Jersey.
