Lyrics

Lights

[Verse 1]

Strangest night was born

And carried away on a winter’s gust

Placed on the wings of a ghost-like dove

Dressed in all your clothes

I put you to bed in the lamp light glow

Tears gently shed onto your pillow

[Chorus]

I will be your light

Till morning comes

Place your hand on mine

And I won’t let go

I will be your eyes

Guide you home

Home, home

[Verse 2]

Brazen heart will show

Brave but unsure of where to go

Strong but afraid of the world unknown

But I will always run

As fast as my body allows me to

Waiting in line to carry you

[Chorus]

I will be your light

Till morning comes

Place your hand on mine

And I won’t let go

I will be your eyes

Guide you home

Home, home

I will be your light

Till morning comes

Place your hand on min

And I won’t let go

I will be your eyes

Guide you home

Home, home
