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 fairytale inside your head
Has become your new best friend
But I can assure you
That I'll be there before the story ends
Cause 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 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
The waitless nights and lack of rest
I'll wait for 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'll see...
