Lyrics
Hold up a light, steady a bright Out like a knife through the cold and dark These eager flames can't be contained Cities are claimed by the smallest spark It's raining and I know we're tired But try to raise your lamps a little higher up Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the world is won Soaking and scared Worse for the wear But still we dare for the light of the day Darkness above but we're dreaming of the New day when love burns this night away It's raining and I know we're tired But try to raise your lamps a little higher up Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the world is won Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the world is won Hold up Hold up Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up Hold up Hold up a light till the world is won Hold up a light, steady a bright Out like a knife through the cold and dark These eager flames can't be contained Cities are claimed by the smallest spark It's raining and I know we're tired But try to raise your lamps a little higher up Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the world is won Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the morning comes Hold up a light Hold up a light Hold up a light till the world is won
