It sounds like this is nothing new
And that it hasn't been for a while
You wake up on the other side
And you strain to force a smile
The fairy tale inside your head
Has become your new best friend
But I can assure you that I'll be there
Before the story end
When I needed a place to hang my heart
You were there to wear it from the start
And with every breath of me
You'll be the only light I see
I'm racing to the finish line
Of a lifetime that's barely started
The peace of mind I left behind
I'll pray you'll keep in your perfect garden
You're waiting on a minute hand
In a countdown that lasts for days
But I'm here to tell you
It won't be long before I'm here to stay
When I needed a place to hang my heart
You were there to wear it from the start
And with every breath of me
You'll be the only light I see
The weightlessness and the lack of rest
Away from you I'm in over my head
Even when it's dark before the dawn
I will feel your grace and carry on
And with every breath of me
You'll be the only light I see
When I needed a place to hang my heart
You were there to wear it from the start
And with every breath of me
You'll be the only light I see
Even when it's dark
Before the dawn I will feel your grace and carry on
And with every breath of me
You'll be the only light I see
The only light I see
